Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of a cool planet of 5.5 Earth masses through gravitational microlensing

J. P. Beaulieu, +74 more
- 26 Jan 2006 - 
TL;DR: The detection of a cool, sub-Neptune-mass planets may be more common than gas giant planets, as predicted by the core accretion theory, and is suggested to name OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb, indicating a planetary mass companion to the lens star of the microlensing event.
Journal ArticleDOI

One or more bound planets per Milky Way star from microlensing observations

Arnaud Cassan, +70 more
- 12 Jan 2012 - 
TL;DR: It is concluded that stars are orbited by planets as a rule, rather than the exception, and that of stars host Jupiter-mass planets 0.5–10 au (Sun–Earth distance) from their stars.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequency of solar-like systems and of ice and gas giants beyond the snow line from high-magnification microlensing events in 2005-2008

Andrew Gould, +149 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the first measurement of the planet frequency beyond the "snow line," for the planet-to-star mass-ratio interval during 2005-2008 microlensing events during the survey-plus-follow-up high-magnification channel.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of a Jupiter/Saturn Analog with Gravitational Microlensing

B. S. Gaudi, +70 more
- 15 Feb 2008 - 
TL;DR: Two planets with masses that could not have been detected with other techniques are identified; their discovery from only six confirmed microlensing planet detections suggests that solar system analogs may be common.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequency of Solar-Like Systems and of Ice and Gas Giants Beyond the Snow Line from High-Magnification Microlensing Events in 2005-2008

TL;DR: In this article, the first measurement of planet frequency beyond the "snow line" for planet/star mass-ratios was presented, where the observations constitute a "controlled experiment", which permits measurement of absolute planet frequency.
