Gravitational Microlensing Event Statistics for the Zwicky Transient Facility
Michael S. Medford, Jessica R. Lu, William A. Dawson +4
Microlensing surveys have discovered thousands of events with almost all events discovered within the Galactic bulge or toward the Magellanic clouds. The Zwicky Transient Facility…
PopSyCLE: A New Population Synthesis Code for Compact Object Microlensing Events
Casey Y. Lam, Jessica R. Lu, Matthew W. Hosek +2
We present a new Milky Way microlensing simulation code, dubbed PopSyCLE (Population Synthesis for Compact object Lensing Events). PopSyCLE is the first resolved microlensing simul…
Astro2020: From Stars to Compact Objects: The Initial-Final Mass Relation
Jessica R. Lu, Casey Lam, Will Dawson +5
One of the key phases of stellar evolution that remains poorly understood is stellar death. We lack a predictive model for how a star of a given mass explodes and what kind of remn…
