First assessment of the binary lens OGLE-2015_BLG-0232
E. Bachelet, V. Bozza, C. Han +51
We present an analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0232. This event is challenging to characterize for two reasons. First, the light curve is not well sampled during th…
Two new free-floating or wide-orbit planets from microlensing
P. Mroz, A. Udalski, D. P. Bennett +57
Planet formation theories predict the existence of free-floating planets that have been ejected from their parent systems. Although they emit little or no light, they can be detect…
Three-Dimensional Distributions of Type II Cepheids and Anomalous Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds. Do these Stars Belong to the Old, Young or Intermediate-Age Population?

Rotation curve of the Milky Way from Classical Cepheids
P. Mroz, A. Udalski, D. M. Skowron +7
Flat rotation curves of spiral galaxies are considered as an evidence for dark matter, but the rotation curve of the Milky Way is difficult to measure. Various objects were used to…
OGLE-2015-BLG-1670Lb: A Cold Neptune beyond the Snow Line in the Provisional WFIRST Microlensing Survey Field

We present the analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-1670, detected in a high-extinction field, very close to the Galactic plane. Due to the dust extinction along the li…
Identification of blazar candidates behind Small and Large Magellanic Clouds
Natalia Żywucka, Arti Goyal, Marek Jamrozy +4
We report the identification of blazar candidates behind the Magellanic Clouds. The objects were selected from the Magellanic Quasars Survey (MQS), which targeted the entire Large…
The OGLE Collection of Variable Stars. Type II Cepheids in the Magellanic System

OGLE-2017-BLG-0537: Microlensing Event with a Resolvable Lens in years from High-resolution Follow-up Observations
Y. K. Jung, C. Han, A. Udalski +29
We present the analysis of the binary-lens microlensing event OGLE-2017-BLG-0537. The light curve of the event exhibits two strong caustic-crossing spikes among which the second ca…
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies in the context of the Quasar Main Sequence
Bozena Czerny, Swayamtrupta Panda, Marzena Sniegowska +4
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies are defined on the basis of their line widths, and they are generally considered to be high Eddington ratio sources. But in the context of the Quasar…
A Planetary Microlensing Event with an Unusually Red Source Star: MOA-2011-BLG-291
David P. Bennett, Andrzej Udalski, Ian A. Bond +43
We present the analysis of planetary microlensing event MOA-2011-BLG-291, which has a mass ratio of and a source star that is redder (or brighter) than…
A three-dimensional map of the Milky Way using classical Cepheid variable stars
D. M. Skowron, J. Skowron, P. Mróz +9
The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy, with physical properties inferred from various tracers informed by the extrapolation of structures seen in other galaxies. However, the dis…
