Discovery of a Jupiter/Saturn Analog with Gravitational Microlensing
B. S. Gaudi, D. P. Bennett, A. Udalski +66
Searches for extrasolar planets have uncovered an astonishing diversity of planetary systems, yet the frequency of solar system analogs remains unknown. The gravitational microlens…
Discovery of a Cool Planet of 5.5 Earth Masses Through Gravitational Microlensing
J. -P. Beaulieu, D. P. Bennett, P. Fouque +46
In the favoured core-accretion model of formation of planetary systems, solid planetesimals accumulate to build up planetary cores, which then accrete nebular gas if they are suffi…
e-VLBI observations of SN2001em - an off-axis GRB candidate
Z. Paragi, M. A. Garrett, B. Paczynski +5
Studying transient phenomena with the Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) technique faces severe difficulties because the turnaround time of the experiments from the observati…
Microlensing optical depth toward the Galactic Bulge using bright sources from OGLE-II
T. Sumi, P. R. Wozniak, A. Udalski +8
We present a measurement of the microlensing optical depth toward the Galactic Bulge based on 4 years of the OGLE-II survey using Red Clump Giant (RCG). Using 32 events we find tau…
Acceleration and Parallax Effects in Gravitational Microlensing
M. C. Smith, S. Mao, B. Paczynski
To generate the standard microlensing light curve one assumes that the relative motion of the source, the lens, and the observer is linear. In reality, the relative motion is likel…
Geometrically Thin Disk Accreting Into a Black Hole
Niayesh Afshordi, Bohdan Paczynski
A numerical model of a steady state, thin accretion disk with a constant effective speed of sound is presented. We demonstrate that `zero torque' inner boundary condition is a reas…
