Detection of Extrasolar Planets by Gravitational Microlensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Gravitational microlensing provides a unique window on the properties and prevalence of extrasolar planetary systems because of its ability to find low-mass planets at separations of a few AU.

Optimal Survey Strategies and Predicted Planet Yields for the Korean Microlensing Telescope Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Korean Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) will consist of three 1.6m telescopes each with a 4 deg^{2} field of view (FoV) and will be dedicated to monitoring the Galactic Bulge to detect exoplanets via gravitational microlensing.

Infrared-radio-follow-up observations for detection of the magnetic radio emission of extra solar planets: a new window to detect exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
There are several methods for indirectly detecting exoplanets, such as transit, radial velocity, astrometry, and the conventional gravitational microlensing approach.

Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. III. Detectability of Giant Exomoons of Wide-separation Giant Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) will conduct a Galactic Exoplanet Survey to discover bound and free-floating exoplanets using gravitational microlensing. Roman should be sensitive to lenses with mass down to ∼0.02 M _⊕ , or roughly the mass

Simulating Gravitational Microlensing Events by TESS: Predictions on Statistics and Properties

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We study the statistics and properties of microlensing events that can be detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) based on Monte Carlo simulations. We simulate potential microlensing events from a sample of TESS Candidate Target List

Adaptive Optics Imaging Can Break the Central Caustic Cusp Approach Degeneracy in High-magnification Microlensing Events [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2022
We report new results for the gravitational microlensing target OGLE-2011-BLG-0950 from adaptive optics images using the Keck Observatory. The original analysis by Choi et al. and reanalysis by Suzuki et al.

Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. II. Free-floating Planet Detection Rates [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2020
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) will perform a Galactic Exoplanet Survey (RGES) to discover bound exoplanets with semimajor axes greater than 1 au using gravitational microlensing. Roman will even be sensitive to planetary-mass objects that

Transit and radial velocity method for exoplanet detection

open access: yesTheoretical and Natural Science, 2023
This article introduces some basic methods that human usually uses nowadays to detect exoplanets, including transits method, radial velocity method, direct imaging method, gravitational microlensing method, and astrometry method.

Gravitational wave detection with photometric surveys [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2020
Gravitational wave (GW) detections have considerably enriched our understanding of the universe. To date, all the known events were observed via direct detection.

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. VII. Complete Sample of q < 10−4 Planets from the First 4 yr Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present the analysis of seven microlensing planetary events with planet/host mass ratios q < 10 ^−4 : KMT-2017-BLG-1194, KMT-2017-BLG-0428, KMT-2019-BLG-1806, KMT-2017-BLG-1003, KMT-2019-BLG-1367, OGLE-2017-BLG-1806, and KMT-2016-BLG-1105.
