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

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.
