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

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.
