MACHOs in M31? Absence of evidence but not evidence of absence
Jelte T. A. de Jong, Lawrence M. Widrow, Patrick Cseresnjes +9
We present results of a microlensing survey toward the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) carried out during four observing seasons at the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT). This survey is part of…
Microlensing in M31; Preliminary lightcurves from MEGA
Jelte de Jong, Penny D. Sackett, Konrad Kuijken +3
One of the possible astrophysical solutions to the galactic dark matter problem is the presence of a significant amount of ``dark'' compact objects (MACHOs) in galactic dark matter…
MEGA, a Wide-Field Survey of Microlensing in M31
A. P. S. Crotts, R. Uglesich, G. Gyuk
We detail how microlensing internal to M31 could be used to test whether a large fraction of the matter in spiral galaxy haloes is composed of dark objects with masses comparable t…
