Microlensing optical depth, event rate, and limits on compact objects in dark matter based on 20 yr of OGLE observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud

P. Mróz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymański +12

Some previous studies have suggested that massive and intermediate-mass primordial black holes (PBHs) could comprise a substantial fraction of dark matter in the Universe. Such bla…

Automated detection and modeling of binary microlensing events in OGLE-IV data. I. Events with well-separated bumps

R. A. P. Oliveira, R. Poleski, P. Mróz +11

Gravitational microlensing depends primarily on the lens mass and presents a larger occurrence rate in crowded regions, which makes it the best tool to uncover the initial mass fun…

Analysis of the full Spitzer microlensing sample I: Dark remnant candidates and Gaia predictions

Krzysztof A. Rybicki, Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee +70

In the pursuit of understanding the population of stellar remnants within the Milky Way, we analyze the sample of microlensing events observed by the Spitzer Space Teles…

Virial Black Hole Masses for AGNs behind the Magellanic Clouds

Swayamtrupta Panda, Szymon Kozłowski, Mariusz Gromadzki +13

We use the spectroscopic data collected by the Magellanic Quasars Survey (MQS) as well as the photometric V- and I-band data from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE…

Microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud based on 20 years of OGLE observations

P. Mroz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymanski +14

Measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) can be used to probe the distribution and mass function of compact objects in…

No massive black holes in the Milky Way halo

P. Mroz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymanski +13

The gravitational wave detectors have unveiled a population of massive black holes that do not resemble those observed in the Milky Way and whose origin is debated. According to on…
