Exoplanets and brown dwarfs detections through gravitational microlensing. Study of interferometric observations

open access: green, 2015
L'effet de microlentille gravitationnelle est devenu un outil unique pour détecter des exoplanètes. Il se produit lorsqu'une étoile de premier plan (la microlentille) et une étoile d'arrière plan (la source) sont alignées avec la Terre. La lumière provenant de l'étoile la plus lointaine, souvent dans le bulbe galactique, est alors déviée par la ...

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. VIII. Complete Sample of 2019 Subprime Field Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We complete the publication of all microlensing planets (and “possible planets”) identified by the uniform approach of the KMT AnomalyFinder system in the 21 KMT subprime fields during the 2019 observing season, namely, KMT-2019-BLG-0298, KMT-2019-BLG ...

The Fundamental Connections between the Solar System and Exoplanetary Science

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 126, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Over the past several decades, thousands of planets have been discovered outside our Solar System. These planets exhibit enormous diversity, and their large numbers provide a statistical opportunity to place our Solar System within the broader context of planetary structure, atmospheres, architectures, formation, and evolution.

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

open access: yesThe 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]

open access: yesThe 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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

MOA-2020-BLG-208Lb: Cool Sub-Saturn-mass Planet within Predicted Desert

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We analyze the MOA-2020-BLG-208 gravitational microlensing event and present the discovery and characterization of a new planet, MOA-2020-BLG-208Lb, with an estimated sub-Saturn mass.

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. IX. Complete Sample of 2016 Prime-field Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
As a part of the “Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search” series, we report five new planets (namely, OGLE-2016-BLG-1635Lb, MOA-2016-BLG-532Lb, KMT-2016-BLG-0625Lb, OGLE-2016-BLG-1850Lb, and KMT-2016-BLG-1751Lb) and one planet candidate (KMT-2016-BLG-

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.

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

open access: yes, 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
