A Jovian-mass Planet in Microlensing Event OGLE-2005-BLG-071

A. Udalski, M. Jaroszynski, B. Paczynski +30

We report the discovery of a several-Jupiter mass planetary companion to the primary lens star in microlensing event OGLE-2005-BLG-071. Precise (<1%) photometry at the peak of the…

Systematic Analysis of 22 Microlensing Parallax Candidates

Shawn Poindexter, Cristina Afonso, David P. Bennett +4

We attempt to identify all microlensing parallax events for which the parallax fit improves Δχ^2 > 100 relative to a standard microlensing model. We outline a procedure to identify…

Determination of stellar shape in microlensing event MOA 2002-BLG-33

N. J. Rattenbury, F. Abe, D. P. Bennett +30

We report a measurement of the shape of the source star in microlensing event MOA 2002-BLG-33. The lens for this event was a close binary whose centre-of-mass passed almost directl…

Photometric Confirmation of MACHO Large Magellanic Cloud Microlensing Events

David P. Bennett, Andrew C. Becker, Austin Tomaney

We present previously unpublished photometry of three Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) microlensing events and show that the new photometry confirms the microlensing interpretation of…
