OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb: First Spitzer Bulge Planet Lies Near the Planet/Brown-Dwarf Boundary

Y. -H. Ryu, J. C. Yee, A. Udalski +106

We report the discovery of OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb, which is likely to be the first Spitzer microlensing planet in the Galactic bulge/bar, an assignation that can be confirmed by two…

OGLE-2015-BLG-1459L: The Challenges of Exo-Moon Microlensing

K. -H. Hwang, A. Udalski, I. A. Bond +57

We show that dense OGLE and KMTNet -band survey data require four bodies (sources plus lenses) to explain the microlensing light curve of OGLE-2015-BLG-1459. However, these can…

A Challenge to Identify an Optical Counterpart of the Gravitational Wave Event GW151226 with Hyper Suprime-Cam

Yousuke Utsumi, Nozomu Tominaga, Masaomi Tanaka +15

We present the results of the detailed analysis of an optical imaging survey conducted using the Subaru / Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC), which aims to identify an optical counterpart to…
