Hunting for Cold Exoplanets via Microlensing

Abstract: Microlensing can detect planets at distances ranging from a few hundred parsecs all the way to the Galactic center. The maximum sensitivity is reached for systems that are located half way to the galactic center, with planets orbiting the lens star at a separation of few AUs. It is the only method currently probing exoplanets in the Earth-Saturn mass range beyond the snow line, where the core accretion theory originally predicted that most massive planets would form. Although the number of detected planets is … Show more
