Gravitational microlensing finds planets through their gravitational influence on the light
coming from a more distant background star. The presence of the planet is then inferred from …

Studies, have shown that the remnants of destroyed planets and debris-disk planetesimals
can survive the volatile evolution of their host stars into white dwarfs,, but few intact planetary …

WFIRST Exoplanet Mass-measurement Method Finds a Planetary Mass of 39 ± 8 M⊕ for
OGLE-2012-BLG-0950Lb - IOPscience This site uses cookies. By continuing to use this site you …

We report the discovery of KMT-2020-BLG-0414Lb, with a planet-to-host mass ratio q 2= 0.9–
1.2× 10− 5= 3–4⊕ at 1σ, which is the lowest mass-ratio microlensing planet to date …

We present adaptive optics imaging from the NIRC2 instrument on the Keck II telescope that
resolves the exoplanet host (and lens) star as it separates from the brighter source star …

We compare the planet-to-star mass-ratio distribution measured by gravitational
microlensing to core accretion theory predictions from population synthesis models. The …

We present the analysis of high-resolution images of MOA-2013-BLG-220, taken with the
Keck adaptive optics system six years after the initial observation, identifying the lens as a …

Gravitational microlensing is currently the only technique that helps study the Galactic
distribution of planets as a function of distance from the Galactic center. The Galactic …

Aims. The high-magnification microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-1077 exhibits a subtle and
complex anomaly pattern in the region around the peak. We analyze the lensing light curve …

We present Keck/NIRC2 adaptive optics imaging of planetary microlensing event MOA-2007-
BLG-400 that resolves the lens star system from the source. We find that the MOA-2007-BLG …
