Conceived problems with microlensing:

1. Seems complicated…

2. and hence results suspect…

3. No “follow up” of planets possible

4. Statistically useless due to haphazard survey strategies

5. Planet yield so small -- not worth trouble?

“galaxy lensing”:

Caustics:

points in the source plane which get infinite magnification.

For a point lens, caustic is a single point behind the lens. (source there gets magnified into Einstein ring)

Page 28: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…
Page 29: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Caustic cusps

Page 30: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Magnification still ~ 1/(distance to caustic)

Page 31: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…
Page 32: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

A. Cassan

Source passage on or near central caustics: high mag almost full Einstein ring ~100% detection efficiency for planets near Einstein radius (lensing region).

planetary caustics: low mag Lower planet detection efficiency per event, but much more common.

Page 33: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Gould et al. 2006, 2009

Microlensing probes a unique region of planetary parameter space…

Page 34: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Gould et al. 2006, 2009

…near the Einstein radii of stars ~ their snow lines.

SLensR M

Snowline scaling with mass:

star

Page 35: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Snowline-region planet frequency based on microlensing discovery statistics:

Gould et al. (2010, based on 6 planets):

~1/3 of stars have snowline-region planets;

~1/6 of stars have solar-like planetary systems;

Cassan et al. (2012, based on 2 (!) planets):

~1/6 host jupiters

~1/2 host neptunes

~2/3 host super-earths

Page 36: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Why so few?

“1st Generation” survey strategy (Gould & Loeb 1992) focused on bright, high-magnification (mag>100) events.

To date, only ~20 microlensing planets.

1st Generation microlensing

OGLE, Chile, 1.3m MOA, NZ, 1.8m

• low cadence (~ once a night)

Page 39: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

1st Generation microlensing

Page 40: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

1st Generation microlensing

~650 events/year

Page 41: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

1st Generation Microlensing

Follow-up search for planetary perturbations with global network on bright, high-magnification events:

Page 42: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

High-magnification (mag >100) events are:

Good: ~100% sensitivity to planets projected near Einstein radius,

+ high S/N light curves even with small and amateur telescopes.

Bad: Rare events (~1%) ~7 events/year 1-2 planets/year.

Page 43: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

A. Cassan

As opposed to high-mag (central caustic) events,

Low-magnification (planetary caustic) events:

Lower planet detection efficiency, but much more common:

Potential for tens of microlensing planets/year.

Page 44: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Beaulieu et al. 2006

Page 45: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Need network of 1-2m class telescopes with degree-scale imagers for continuous monitoring of many low-mag events in search of planetary perturbations:

“Generation II microlensing”

Page 46: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Since 2011: A generation-II microlensing experiment:

Wise Obs., Israel, D=1m, 1 deg2

OGLE IV, Chile, D=1.3m, 1.4 deg2 MOA-II, NZ, D=1.8m, 2.3 deg2

Yossi Shvartzvald is there

What to expect from Generation II?a simulation:

Monte-Carlo of many Solar-System-like planetary systems, host star properties matching those of bulge microlensing population, random inclinations.

Ray trace through systems…… …add real sampling sequences, photometry errors…

…search for planetary-type anomalies with same detection criteria as real data

Shvartzvald & Maoz 2012

Simulation results: can detect ~10-20% of planets around microlensed stars;

~100 stars in Gen-II footprint, so (10 to 20)*f planets per season.

Page 60: Conceived problems with microlensing : Seems complicated… and hence results suspect…

Conceived problems with microlensing:

1. Seems complicated…

but calculable. An elegant geometric method.

2. Light curve complexity uniqueness of models

3. No “follow up” possible

Not quite valid/true.

4. Planet yield so small -- not worth trouble?

Untrue! Unique probe of normal planetary systems near snow line, beyond Solar neighborhood, free-floating planets, yield growing thx to Generation II (plus controlled experiment)

Some calendar numerology:

Today, 18 Dec 2012 is:

12 / 2 days since 12.12.12 (just married?);

3 days until 21.12.12 (end of the world);

24,377 days since May 2, 1946

=0.66667 century

Happy 2/3 centennial Birthday, Tsevi !!
