Microlensing events by proxima centauri in 2014 and 2016: Opportunities for mass determination and possible planet detection

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that Proxima Centauri will pass close to a pair of faint background stars in the next few years and the relativistic deflection of light will cause shifts in the positions of the background stars of ∼0.5 and 1.5 mas, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microlensing binaries discovered through high-magnification channel

In-Gu Shin, +163 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the light curves of eight binary-lensing events detected through the channel of high-magnification events during the seasons from 2007 to 2010 were analyzed, and the dependence of the degeneracy on the lensing parameters was consistent with a theoretical prediction that the degeneration becomes severe as the binary separation and the mass ratio deviate from the values of resonant caustics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Probing MACHOs by observation of M31 pixel lensing with the 1.5m Loiano telescope

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of pilot observations in order to study microlensing of (unresolved) stars in M31 with the 1.5m Loiano telescope, including observations on both identified variable source stars and reported micro-lensing events, were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

MOA-2010-BLG-523: "Failed Planet" = RS CVn Star

Andrew Gould, +118 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine long-term photometric monitoring with a previously published high-resolution spectrum taken near peak to demonstrate that this is an RS CVn variable, so that planetary microlensing is not required to explain the lightcurve deviations.
