Four binary microlenses with directly measured masses
Cheongho Han, Andrzej Udalski, Chung-Uk Lee +58
We investigated binary lens events from the 2022-2024 microlensing surveys, aiming to identify events suitable for lens mass measurements. We focused on two key light curve feature…
Roman CCS White Paper: Characterizing the Galactic population of isolated black holes
Casey Y. Lam, Natasha Abrams, Jeff Andrews +34
Although there are estimated to be 100 million isolated black holes (BHs) in the Milky Way, only one has been found so far, resulting in significant uncertainty about their propert…
The Galactic Center with Roman
Sean K. Terry, Matthew W. Hosek, Jessica R. Lu +31
We advocate for a Galactic center (GC) field to be added to the Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey (GBTDS). The new field would yield high-cadence photometric and astrometric measur…
Magnifying NASA Roman GBTDS exoplanet science with coordinated observations by ESA Euclid
Eamonn Kerins, Etienne Bachelet, Jean-Philippe Beaulieu +6
The ESA Euclid mission is scheduled to launch on July 1st 2023. This White Paper discusses how Euclid observations of the Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey (GBTDS) area could drama…
Community Involvement in the WFIRST Exoplanet Microlensing Survey
David P. Bennett, Rachel Akeson, Thomas Barclay +22
WFIRST is NASA's first flagship mission with pre-defined core science programs to study dark energy and perform a statistical census of wide orbit exoplanets with a gravitational m…
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope: 100 Hubbles for the 2020s
Rachel Akeson, Lee Armus, Etienne Bachelet +103
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) is a 2.4m space telescope with a 0.281 deg^2 field of view for near-IR imaging and slitless spectroscopy and a coronagraph designe…
