Prediction of Planet Yields by the PRime-focus Infrared Microlensing Experiment Microlensing Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The PRime-focus Infrared Microlensing Experiment (PRIME) will be the first to conduct a dedicated near-infrared microlensing survey by using a 1.8 m telescope with a wide field of view of 1.45 deg ^2 at the South African Astronomical Observatory.

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.
