KMT-2025-BLG-1616Lb: First Microlensing Bound Planet From DREAMS

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present observations and analysis of the bound planetary microlensing event KMT-2025-BLG-1616. The planetary signal was captured by the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network and the Dark Energy Camera Rogue Earths and Mars Survey (DREAMS).

Astrophysical implications of gravitational microlensing of gravitational waves

open access: yes, 2001
Astrophysical implications of gravitational microlensing of gravitational waves emitted by rotating neutron stars (NSs) are investigated. In particular, attention is focused on the following situations: i) NSs in the galactic bulge lensed by a central ...

TESS’s First Bound Microlensing Planet—A Binary Microlensing Event Revealing a Planetary Companion toward the Galactic Plane

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We report the discovery of Gaia23bra b, the first gravitationally bound microlensing planet detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).

Exoplanet Searches in the Habitable Zone with Gravitational Microlensing

open access: yes, 2014
There are different methods for finding exoplanets such as radial spectral shifts, astrometrical measurements, transits, timing, etc. Gravitational microlensing (including pixel-lensing) is among the most promising techniques with the potential of ...

Investigating the Binary Source Degeneracy for Wide-orbit Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Wide-orbit planets are particularly sensitive to detection by the Roman Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey (GBTDS). This study investigates the degeneracy of these events with binary sources, focusing on how observation cadence affects the resolution of ...

Gravitational Microlensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A gravitational microlensing event occurs when a foreground star passes near our line of site to a background source star. The foreground star acts as a lens, perturbing the image of the source star and amplifying the apparent intensity. Because the lens

How Rare Are TESS Free-floating Planets?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recently, Kunimoto et al. claimed that a short-lived signal in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Sector 61 database was possibly caused by a microlensing event with a terrestrial-mass free-floating planet (FFP) lens.

Gravitational microlensing as a test of stellar model atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present calculations illustrating the potential of gravitational microlensing to discriminate between classical models of stellar surface brightness profiles and the computed ""Next Generation"" models of Hauschildt et al. (1999).

LensNet: Enhancing Real-time Microlensing Event Discovery with Recurrent Neural Networks in the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Traditional microlensing event vetting methods require highly trained human experts, and the process is both complex and time consuming. This reliance on manual inspection often leads to inefficiencies and constrains the ability to scale for widespread ...
