First Resolution of Microlensed Images of a Binary-lens Event [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We resolve the multiple images of the binary-lens microlensing event ASASSN-22av using the GRAVITY instrument of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI).

A Close Binary Lens Revealed by the Microlensing Event Gaia20bof

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
During the last 25 yr, hundreds of binary stars and planets have been discovered toward the Galactic bulge by microlensing surveys. Thanks to a new generation of large-sky surveys, it is now possible to regularly detect microlensing events across the ...

Single Photon Kilohertz Frame Rate Imaging of Neural Activity. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh), 2022
The high temporal precision of single photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) is leveraged to record neural activity reported by genetically encoded voltage indicators. Subthreshold and spiking activity of single neurons is resolved with shot noise limited signals at frame rates of up to 10 kHz.

Gaia20fnr: A binary-lens microlensing event with full orbital motion revealed by four space telescopes

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The microlensing event Gaia20fnr is a long-duration, non-caustic-crossing binary-lens event located at a high Galactic latitude. Triggered by a photometric rise detected by the Gaia space mission, the event was followed up with observations from multiple

OGLE-2019-BLG-0825: Constraints on the Source System and Effect on Binary-lens Parameters Arising from a Five-day Xallarap Effect in a Candidate Planetary Microlensing Event [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present an analysis of microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-0825. This event was identified as a planetary candidate by preliminary modeling. We find that significant residuals from the best-fit static binary-lens model exist and a xallarap effect can fit

KMT-2022-BLG-0086: Another Binary-lens Binary-source Microlensing Event

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present the analysis of a microlensing event KMT-2022-BLG-0086 of which the overall light curve is not described by a binary-lens single-source (2L1S) model, which suggests the existence of an extra lens or an extra source.

Four-body Gravitational Microlensing Events Involving Both a Binary Lens and a Binary Source

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present detailed analyses of three anomalous microlensing events—KMT-2021-BLG-0209, KMT-2021-BLG-0901, and OGLE-2025-BLG-0356—identified from a systematic reexamination of KMTNet light curves for which previous modeling attempts failed or left ...

Assessing the Impact of Binary Systems on Microlensing Using SPISEA and PopSyCLE Population Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Gravitational microlensing provides a unique opportunity to probe the mass distribution of stars, black holes, and other objects in the Milky Way. Population simulations are necessary to interpret results from microlensing surveys.

Binary-lens Microlensing Degeneracy: Impact on Planetary Sensitivity and Mass-ratio Function

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Gravitational microlensing is a unique method for discovering cold planets across a broad mass range. Reliable statistics of the microlensing planets require accurate sensitivity estimates.
