MOA-2010-BLG-073L: An M-Dwarf with a Substellar Companion at the Planet/Brown Dwarf Boundary

R. A. Street, J. -Y. Choi, Y. Tsapras +129

We present an analysis of the anomalous microlensing event, MOA-2010-BLG-073, announced by the Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics survey on 2010-03-18. This event was remark…

Semiregular variables with periods lying between the period-luminosity sequences C', C and D

I. Soszynski, P. R. Wood

We analyze the distribution of semiregular variables and Mira stars in the period-luminosity plane. Our sample consists of 6169 oxygen-rich long-period variables in the Large Magel…

MOA-2010-BLG-523: "Failed Planet" = RS CVn Star

A. Gould, J. C. Yee, I. A. Bond +116

The Galactic bulge source MOA-2010-BLG-523S exhibited short-term deviations from a standard microlensing lightcurve near the peak of an Amax ~ 265 high-magnification microlensing e…

MOA-2010-BLG-311: A planetary candidate below the threshold of reliable detection

J. C. Yee, L. -W. Hung, I. A. Bond +123

We analyze MOA-2010-BLG-311, a high magnification (A_max>600) microlensing event with complete data coverage over the peak, making it very sensitive to planetary signals. We fit th…

Using Orbital Effects to Break the Close/wide Degeneracy in Binary-lens Microlensing Events

I. -G. Shin, T. Sumi, A. Udalski +37

Microlensing can provide an important tool to study binaries, especially those composed of faint or dark objects. However, accurate analysis of binary-lens light curves is often ha…
