KMT-2024-BLG-3237: Another Free-floating Planet Candidate with Angular Einstein Radius Measurement

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Planet-formation theories suggest the presence of free-floating planets (FFPs) that are ejected from their formation sites. While these planets emit very little light, they can be identified through gravitational microlensing.

Mass Production of 2023 KMTNet Microlensing Planets. I. Low Mass Ratio

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We initiate the systematic search for planets in the 2023 data of the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet), focusing on those planets found by the KMTNet AnomalyFinder with low preliminary estimates of the mass ratio, q

Four Cold Giant Planets Discovered by High-cadence Microlensing Surveys

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report the discovery of four cold giant planets identified through the analysis of microlensing events detected by high-cadence surveys: OGLE-2016-BLG-0261, KMT-2025-BLG-0026, KMT-2025-BLG-0030, and KMT-2025-BLG-2272.

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. XIII. Complete Sample of 2021 Prime Field Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search series was conducted using the KMTNet data archived from 2016–2019. From this first phase of the series, we reported a total of 50 planetary systems hidden in the data archive, which represent about 35% of ...

Gaia22dkvLb: A Microlensing Planet Potentially Accessible to Radial-velocity Characterization

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report discovering an exoplanet from following up a microlensing event alerted by Gaia. The event Gaia22dkv is toward a disk source rather than the traditional bulge microlensing fields. Our primary analysis yields a Jovian planet with ${M}_{{\rm{p}}}=

KMT-2023-BLG-2669: Ninth Free-floating Planet Candidate with θ E Measurements

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report a free-floating planet (FFP) candidate identified from the analysis of the microlensing event KMT-2023-BLG-2669. The lensing light curve is characterized by a short duration (≲3 days) and a small amplitude (≲0.7 mag). From the analysis, we find

Exoplanet searches with gravitational microlensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Different regimes of gravitational lensing depend on lens masses and roughly correspond to angular dis- tance between images. If a gravitational lens has a typical stellar mass, this regime is named microlens- ing because the typical angular distance

Mass Production of 2023 KMTNet Microlensing Planets. II. Two Planets and A Brown Dwarf

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
To expand the homogeneous microlensing planetary sample of the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet), we investigate six planetary candidates identified by the AnomalyFinder search in the 2023 prime-field data, namely KMT-2023-BLG-1592, OGLE-2023-

Theoretical Advances in Gravitational Microlensing Guided by Artificial Intelligence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Three decades have passed since the technique of gravitational microlensing was proposed as a means for exoplanet detection, and nearly 200 microlensing exoplanets have been discovered to date.Previously, theoretical studies of the two-body point-mass ...

Community Involvement in the WFIRST Exoplanet Microlensing Survey

open access: yes, 2019
International audienceWFIRST is NASA's first flagship mission with pre-defined core science programs to study dark energy and perform a statistical census of wide orbit exoplanets with a gravitational microlensing survey.
