CCD Photometry of the globular cluster M2. RR Lyrae physical parameters and new variables

C. Lazaro, A. Arellano Ferro, M. J. Arevalo +3

We report the results of CCD V and R photometry of the RR Lyrae stars in M2. The periodicities of most variables are revised and new ephemerides are calculated. Light curve decompo…

Microlens OGLE-2005-BLG-169 Implies Cool Neptune-Like Planets are Common

A. Gould, A. Udalski, D. An +33

We detect a Neptune mass-ratio (q~8e-5) planetary companion to the lens star in the extremely high-magnification (A~800) microlensing event OGLE-2005-BLG-169. If the parent is a ma…
