Complete Parallax and Proper‐Motion Solutions for Halo Binary‐Lens Microlensing Events [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 1999
A major problem in the interpretation of microlensing events is that the only measured quantity, the Einstein time scale t_E, is a degenerate combination of the three quantities one would like to know, the mass, distance, and speed of the lens. This degeneracy can be partly broken by measuring either a "parallax" or a "proper motion" and completely ...

Rapid analysis of binary lens gravitational microlensing light curves [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2003
A new algorithm for the autonomous fitting of light curves of gravitational microlensing by binary lenses is presented here. The algorithm relies on the combination of artificial neural networks with a conventional amoeba (downhill simplex) method to achieve a success rate of 68 per cent using strict success criteria, in an average fitting time of 48 s

Ambiguities in fits of observed binary lens galactic microlensing events

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 1999
For observed galactic microlensing events only one fit is usually presented, though, especially for a binary lens, several fits may be possible. This has been shown for the MACHO LMC#1 event (Dominik & Hirshfeld 1996). Here I discuss the strong binary lens events OGLE#7 and DUO#2.

Fitting binary lens gravitational microlensing events with example-based algorithms

2007
Fitting binary lens models to gravitational microlensing event is currently a time consuming and labour-intensive process. Example-based algorithms more commonly used in the field of data mining were applied to simulatded and observed light curves in order to facilitate the fitting of a simple-seven-parameter binary lens model with minimal human ...
