The Exoplanet Mass-Ratio Function from the MOA-II Survey: Discovery of a Break and Likely Peak at a Neptune Mass

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the results of the statistical analysis of planetary signals discovered in MOA-II microlensing survey alert system events from 2007 to 2012, finding significant planetary signals in 23 of the 1474 alert events that are well characterized by the MOA II survey data alone, and combine this analysis with the previous analyses of Gould et al. and Cassan et al., bringing the total sample to 30 planets.
