The First Model-independent Chromatic Microlensing Search: No Evidence in the Gravitational Wave Catalog of LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA

The Astrophysical Journal
The lensing of gravitational waves (GWs) due to intervening matter distribution in the Universe can lead to chromatic and achromatic signatures in the wave-optics and geometrical-optics limit, respectively.

μ-GLANCE: A Novel Technique to Detect Chromatically and Achromatically Lensed Gravitational-wave Signals

The Astrophysical Journal
Gravitational microlensing in the wave-optics (WO) regime occurs when the Schwarzschild radius of a lensing object is comparable to or smaller than the wavelength of incoming gravitational waves (GWs), producing chromatic amplitude and phase modulations.

LensNet: Enhancing Real-time Microlensing Event Discovery with Recurrent Neural Networks in the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network

The Astronomical Journal
Traditional microlensing event vetting methods require highly trained human experts, and the process is both complex and time consuming. This reliance on manual inspection often leads to inefficiencies and constrains the ability to scale for widespread ...

Gravitational Microlensing by a Galactic Bar

The Astronomical Journal, 1995
Observations have found that the microlensing optical depth in the direction of the galactic center is larger than theoretical predictions. Here we investigate the effect a galactic bar has on microlensing. We use two models for the bar in order to find the range of microlensing predications.

On Finding Black Holes in Photometric Microlensing Surveys

The Astrophysical Journal
There are expected to be millions of isolated black holes in the galaxy resulting from the deaths of massive stars. Measuring the abundance and properties of this remnant population would shed light on the end stages of stellar evolution and the ...

Introduction to Gravitational Microlensing

, 2008
The basic concepts of gravitational microlensing are introduced. We start with the lens equation, and then derive the image positions and magnifications. The statistical quantities of optical depth and event rate are then described. We finish with a summary and a list of challenges and open questions. A problem set is given for students to practice.

Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. IV. Lens Mass and Distance Measurements

The Astronomical Journal
As part of the Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey (GBTDS), the Nancy Grace Roman Galactic Exoplanet Survey (RGES) will use microlensing to discover cold outer planets and free-floating planets not bound to stars.

Microlensing Optical Depth, Event Rate, and Limits on Compact Objects in Dark Matter Based on 20 Yr of OGLE Observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Some previous studies have suggested that massive and intermediate-mass primordial black holes (PBHs) could comprise a substantial fraction of dark matter in the Universe.
