Campaign 9 of the K2 Mission: Observational Parameters, Scientific Drivers, and Community Involvement for a Simultaneous Space- and Ground-based Microlensing Survey

Calen B. Henderson, +126 more
TL;DR: The demographic questions that can be addressed by this program, including the frequency of FFPs and the Galactic distribution of exoplanets, the observational parameters of K2C9, and the array of resources dedicated to concurrent observations are detailed.

Campaign 9 of the $K2$ Mission: Observational Parameters, Scientific Drivers, and Community Involvement for a Simultaneous Space- and Ground-based Microlensing Survey

Calen B. Henderson, +126 more
TL;DR: For example, the $K2$C9 survey as discussed by the authors provides an overview of the demographic questions that can be addressed by this program, including the frequency of FFPs and the Galactic distribution of exoplanets, the observational parameters of the survey, and the array of resources dedicated to concurrent observations.

Kepler K2 Campaign 9: II. First space-based discovery of an exoplanet using microlensing

TL;DR: The first bound microlensing exoplanet discovered from space-based data is K2-2016-BLG-0005Lb, a densely sampled, planetary binary caustic-crossing micro-lensing event found from a blind search of data gathered from Campaign 9 of the Kepler K2 mission (K2C9) as discussed by the authors .
