Detection of stellar spots from the observations of caustic-crossing binary-lens gravitational microlensing events [PDF]
Recently, Heyrovský & Sasselov investigated the sensitivity of single-lens gravitational microlensing event light curves to spots and found that, during source transit, spots can cause deviations in amplification larger than 2 per cent, and thus be ...

Probable brown dwarf companions detected in binary microlensing events during the 2018-2020 seasons of the KMTNet survey [PDF]
We inspect the microlensing data of the KMTNet survey collected during the 2018--2020 seasons in order to find lensing events produced by binaries with brown-dwarf companions.

KMT-2021-BLG-0322: Severe degeneracy between triple-lens and higher-order binary-lens interpretations [PDF]
We investigate the microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-0322, for which the light curve exhibits three distinctive sets of caustic-crossing features. It is found that the overall features of the light curve are approximately described by a binary-lens (2L1S ...

OGLE-2019-BLG-1470LABc: Another Microlensing Giant Planet in a Binary System? [PDF]
We report the discovery and analysis of a candidate triple-lens single-source (3L1S) microlensing event, OGLE-2019-BLG-1470. This event was first classified as a normal binary-lens single-source (2L1S) event, but a careful 2L1S modelling showed that it

KMT-2021-BLG-1898: Planetary microlensing event involved with binary source stars [PDF]
Aims. The light curve of the microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-1898 exhibits a short-term central anomaly with double-bump features that cannot be explained by the usual binary-lens or binary-source interpretations. With the aim of interpreting the anomaly,

Improved Aberth-Ehrlich root-finding algorithm and its further application for Binary Microlensing [PDF]
In gravitational microlensing formalism and for modeling binary light curves, the key step is solving the binary lens equation. Currently, a combination of the Newton’s and Laguerre’s methods which was first introduced by Skowron & Gould (SG) is used ...

Binary microlensing with plasma environment – Star and planet [PDF]
Galactic microlensing has been widely used to study stars and planets. The stellar wind plays an important role in the formation, environment, and habitability of the planet.

OGLE-2019-BLG-0304: Competing Interpretations between a Planet–binary Model and a Binary-source + Binary-lens Model [PDF]
We analyze the microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-0304, whose light curve exhibits two distinctive features: a deviation in the peak region and a second bump appearing ∼61 days after the main peak.

OGLE-2017-BLG-1038: A Possible Brown-dwarf Binary Revealed by Spitzer Microlensing Parallax [PDF]
We report the analysis of microlensing event OGLE-2017-BLG-1038, observed by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment, Korean Microlensing Telescope Network, and Spitzer telescopes.

Precision measurement of a brown dwarf mass in a binary system in the microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-0033/MOA-2019-BLG-035 [PDF]
Context. Brown dwarfs are poorly understood transition objects between stars and planets, with several competing mechanisms having been proposed for their formation. Mass measurements are generally difficult for isolated objects but also for brown dwarfs
