Blazhko-type modulation in the double-mode RR Lyrae stars of the OGLE Galactic bulge collection
R. Smolec, I. Soszyński, A. Udalski +10
We present the analysis of Blazhko-type modulation in double-mode RR Lyrae (RRd) stars found in the OGLE photometry of the Galactic bulge. Modulation is detected in 15 stars. Most…
Period-Luminosity Relations for Ellipsoidal Binary Stars in the OGLE-III Fields of the Large Magellanic Cloud
M. Pawlak, I. Soszynski, P. Pietrukowicz +10
We report the discovery of two distinct types of ellipsoidal binary systems occupying, so called, sequence E on the period-luminosity (P-L) diagram. We propose that steeper P-L rel…
First Space-based Microlens Parallax Measurement of an Isolated Star: Spitzer Observations of OGLE-2014-BLG-0939
J. C. Yee, A. Udalski, S. Calchi Novati +14
We present the first space-based microlens parallax measurement of an isolated star. From the striking differences in the lightcurve as seen from Earth and from Spitzer (~1 AU to t…
Pathway to the Galactic Distribution of Planets: Combined Spitzer and Ground-Based Microlens Parallax Measurements of 21 Single-Lens Events
S. Calchi Novati, A. Gould, A. Udalski +82
We present microlens parallax measurements for 21 (apparently) isolated lenses observed toward the Galactic bulge that were imaged simultaneously from Earth and Spitzer, which was…
OGLE-BLG182.1.162852: An Eclipsing Binary with a Circumstellar Disk
N. J. Rattenbury, Ł. Wyrzykowski, Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska +11
We present the discovery of a plausible disk-eclipse system OGLE-BLG182.1.162852. The OGLE light curve for OGLE-BLG182.1.162852 shows three episodes of dimming by …
Over 38000 RR Lyrae Stars in the OGLE Galactic Bulge Fields
I. Soszynski, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymanski +10
We present the most comprehensive picture ever obtained of the central parts of the Milky Way probed with RR Lyrae variable stars. This is a collection of 38257 RR Lyr stars detect…
OGLE-2011-BLG-0265Lb: a Jovian Microlensing Planet Orbiting an M Dwarf
J. Skowron, I. -G. Shin, A. Udalski +121
We report the discovery of a Jupiter-mass planet orbiting an M-dwarf star that gave rise to the microlensing event OGLE-2011-BLG-0265. Such a system is very rare among known planet…
OGLE-IV Real-Time Transient Search
L. Wyrzykowski, Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska, S. Kozlowski +11
We present the design and first results of a real-time search for transients within the 650 sq. deg. area around the Magellanic Clouds, conducted as part of the OGLE-IV project and…
A Terrestrial Planet in a ~1 AU Orbit Around One Member of a ~15 AU Binary
A. Gould, A. Udalski, I. -G. Shin +61
We detect a cold, terrestrial planet in a binary-star system using gravitational microlensing. The planet has low mass (2 Earth masses) and lies projected at ~ 0.8 a…
OGLE-2013-BLG-0102LA,B: Microlensing binary with components at star/brown-dwarf and brown-dwarf/planet boundaries
Y. K. Jung, A. Udalski, T. Sumi +51
We present the analysis of the gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2013-BLG-0102. The light curve of the event is characterized by a strong short-term anomaly superposed on a smo…
OGLE-ing the Magellanic System: Stellar populations in the Magellanic Bridge
D. M. Skowron, A. M. Jacyszyn, A. Udalski +11
We report the discovery of a young stellar bridge, that forms a continuous connection between the Magellanic Clouds. This finding is based on number density maps for stellar popula…
OGLE-2008-BLG-355Lb: A Massive Planet around A Late type Star
N. Koshimoto, A. Udalski, T. Sumi +32
We report the discovery of a massive planet OGLE-2008-BLG-355Lb. The light curve analysis indicates a planet:host mass ratio of q = 0.0118 +/- 0.0006 at a separation of 0.877 +/- 0…
Candidate Gravitational Microlensing Events for Future Direct Lens Imaging
C. B. Henderson, H. Park, T. Sumi +76
The mass of the lenses giving rise to Galactic microlensing events can be constrained by measuring the relative lens-source proper motion and lens flux. The flux of the lens can be…
