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…
The Science Case for an Extended Spitzer Mission
Jennifer C. Yee, Giovanni G. Fazio, Robert Benjamin +45
Although the final observations of the Spitzer Warm Mission are currently scheduled for March 2019, it can continue operations through the end of the decade with no loss of photome…
OGLE-2016-BLG-0613LABb: A Microlensing Planet in a Binary System
C. Han, A. Udalski, A. Gould +37
We present the analysis of OGLE-2016-BLG-0613, for which the lensing light curve appears to be that of a typical binary-lens event with two caustic spikes but with a discontinuous…
RoboTAP - target priorities for robotic microlensing observations
M. Hundertmark, R. A. Street, Y. Tsapras +21
Context. The ability to automatically select scientifically-important transient events from an alert stream of many such events, and to conduct follow-up observations in response,…
An Isolated Microlens Observed from K2, Spitzer and Earth
Wei Zhu, A. Udalski, C. Huang +50
We present the result of microlensing event MOA-2016-BLG-290, which received observations from the two-wheel Kepler (K2), Spitzer, as well as ground-based observatories. A joint an…
Combining Spitzer parallax and Keck II adaptive optics imaging to measure the mass of a solar-like star orbited by a cold gaseous planet discovered by microlensing
J. -P. Beaulieu, V. Batista, D. P. Bennett +16
To obtain accurate mass measurements for cold planets discovered by microlensing, it is usually necessary to combine light curve modeling with at least two lens mass-distance relat…
OGLE-2017-BLG-0173Lb: Low Mass-Ratio Planet in a "Hollywood" Microlensing Event
K. -H. Hwang, A. Udalski, Y. Shvartzvald +34
We present microlensing planet OGLE-2017-BLG-0173Lb, with planet-host mass ratio either or , the lowest or among the lowest e…
Ground-based parallax confirmed by Spitzer: binary microlensing event MOA-2015-BLG-020
Tianshu Wang, Wei Zhu, Shude Mao +83
We present the analysis of the binary gravitational microlensing event MOA-2015-BLG-020. The event has a fairly long timescale (about 63 days) and thus the light curve deviates sig…
OGLE-2016-BLG-0168 Binary Microlensing Event: Prediction and Confirmation of the Micorlens Parallax Effect from Space-based Observation
I. -G. Shin, A. Udalski, J. C. Yee +32
The microlens parallax is a crucial observable for conclusively identifying the nature of lens systems in microlensing events containing or composed of faint (even dark) astronomic…
MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb: A Massive Planet Characterized by Combining Lightcurve Analysis and Keck AO Imaging
Naoki Koshimoto, Yossi Shvartzvald, David Bennett +55
We report the discovery of a microlensing planet --- MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb --- with a large planet/host mass ratio of . This event was located near the …
An Earth-mass Planet in a 1-AU Orbit around an Ultracool Dwarf
Y. Shvartzvald, J. C. Yee, S. Calchi Novati +22
We combine and ground-based KMTNet microlensing observations to identify and precisely measure an Earth-mass () planet OGLE-2016-BLG-1195Lb…
OGLE-2015-BLG-1482L: the first isolated low-mass microlens in the Galactic bulge
S. -J. Chung, W. Zhu, A. Udalski +35
We analyze the single microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-1482 simultaneously observed from two ground-based surveys and from \textit{Spitzer}. The \textit{Spitzer} data exhibit finit…
Toward a Galactic Distribution of Planets. I. Methodology & Planet Sensitivities of the 2015 High-Cadence Spitzer Microlens Sample
Wei Zhu, A. Udalski, S. Calchi Novati +35
We analyze an ensemble of microlensing events from the 2015 Spitzer microlensing campaign, all of which were densely monitored by ground-based high-cadence survey teams. The simult…
