The MACHO Project HST Follow-Up: The Large Magellanic Cloud Microlensing Source Stars

C. A. Nelson, A. J. Drake, K. H. Cook +21

We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 photometry of 13 microlensed source stars from the 5.7 year Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) survey conducted by the MACHO Project. The mi…
