Four Planets Found through Microlensing Events Involving Faint Source Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
To conduct a comprehensive demographic study of microlensing planets, it is essential to detect all planetary signals that exceed a predefined threshold through a detailed analysis of survey data.

The Observational Case for Jupiter Being a Typical Massive Planet

open access: yes, 2002
We identify a subsample of the recently detected extrasolar planets that is minimally affected by the selection effects of the Doppler detection method.

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. XII. Complete Sample of 2017 Subprime Field Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report the analysis of four unambiguous planets and one possible planet from the subprime fields (Γ ≤ 1 hr ^−1 ) of the 2017 Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) microlensing survey, to complete the KMTNet AnomalyFinder planetary sample for ...

The First Neptune Analog or Super-Earth with Neptune-like Orbit: MOA-2013-BLG-605Lb

open access: yes, 2016
We present the discovery of the first Neptune analog exoplanet or super-Earth with Neptune-like orbit, MOA-2013-BLG-605Lb. This planet has a mass similar to that of Neptune or a super-Earth and it orbits at $9\sim 14$ times the expected position of the ...

KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c: A Cold Super-Jupiter with a Saturn Sibling

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present the discovery and analysis of the sixth microlensing two-planet system, KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c, detected by a follow-up program targeting high-magnification events.

The Star Blended with the MOA-2008-BLG-310 Source Is Not the Exoplanet Host Star

open access: yes, 2017
High resolution Hubble Space Telescope (HST) image analysis of the MOA-2008-BLG-310 microlens system indicates that the excess flux at the location of the source found in the discovery paper cannot primarily be due to the lens star because it does not ...

A New Parameterization for Finding Solutions for Microlensing Exoplanet Light Curves [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific
The gravitational microlensing method of discovering exoplanets and multi-star systems can produce degenerate solutions, some of which require in-depth analysis to uncover.

OGLE-2017-BLG-0448Lb: A Low Mass–Ratio Wide-orbit Microlensing Planet?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The gravitational microlensing technique is most sensitive to planets in a Jupiter-like orbit and has detected more than 200 planets. However, only a few wide-orbit ( s > 2) microlensing planets have been discovered, where s is the planet-to-host ...

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. XI. Complete Sample of 2016 Subprime Field Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Following Shin et al. (2023b), which is a part of the “Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search” series (i.e., a search for planets in the 2016 KMTNet prime fields), we conduct a systematic search of the 2016 KMTNet subprime fields using a semi-machine-
