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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

On Finding Black Holes in Photometric Microlensing Surveys

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Towards A Census of Earth-mass Exo-planets with Gravitational Microlensing

open access: yes, 2008
Thirteen exo-planets have been discovered using the gravitational microlensing technique (out of which 7 have been published). These planets already demonstrate that super-Earths (with mass up to ~10 Earth masses) beyond the snow line are common and ...

OGLE-2017-BLG-0448Lb: A Low Mass–Ratio Wide-orbit Microlensing Planet?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The gravitational microlensing technique is most sensitive to planets in a Jupiter-like orbit and has detected more than 200 planets. However, only a few wide-orbit ( s > 2) microlensing planets have been discovered, where s is the planet-to-host ...

Systematic Reanalysis of KMTNet Microlensing Events. II. Two New Planets in Giant-source Events

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
In this work, we continue to apply the updated KMTNet tender-love care photometric pipeline to historical microlensing events. We apply the pipeline to a subsample of events from the KMTNet database, which we refer to as the giant source sample ...

The Variable Sky Through the OGLE Eye

open access: yesUniverse
The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) is one of the most productive and influential photometric sky surveys in the history of observational astronomy. Originally designed to detect dark matter through gravitational microlensing events, OGLE
