OGLE-2019-BLG-1180Lb: Discovery of a Wide-orbit Jupiter-mass Planet around a Late-type Star

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
We report on the discovery and analysis of the planetary microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-1180 with a planet-to-star mass ratio q ∼ 0.003. The event OGLE-2019-BLG-1180 has unambiguous cusp-passing and caustic-crossing anomalies, which were caused by a ...

New Self-lensing Models of the Small Magellanic Cloud: Can Gravitational Microlensing Detect Extragalactic Exoplanets? [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 2018
AbstractWe use three-dimensional distributions of classical Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) to model the stellar density distribution of a young and old stellar population in that galaxy. We use these models to estimate the microlensing self-lensing optical depth to the SMC, which is in excellent agreement with the ...

Detecting Multiplanetary Systems with Gravitational Microlensing and the Roman Space Telescope

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
It is plausible that most of the Stars in the Milky Way Galaxy, like the Sun, consist of planetary systems, instead of a single planet. Out of the estimately discovered 3980 planet-hosting stars, about 860 of them are known to be multiplanetary systems ...

Search for exoplanets in M31 with pixel-lensing and the PA-99-N2 event revisited [PDF]

, 2010
Several exoplanets have been detected towards the Galactic bulge with the microlensing technique. We show that exoplanets in M31 may also be detected with the pixel-lensing method, if telescopes making high cadence observations of an ongoing microlensing
