Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. X. Complete Sample of 2017 Prime-Field Planets
We complete the analysis of planetary candidates found by the KMT
AnomalyFinder for the 2017 prime fields that cover . We
report 3 unambiguous planets: OGLE-2017-BLG-0640, OGLE-2017-BLG-1275, and
OGLE-2017-BLG-1237. The first two of these were not previously identified,
while the last was not previously published due to technical complications
induced by a nearby variable. We further report that a fourth anomalous event,
the previously recognized OGLE-2017-BLG-1777, is very likely to be planetary,
although its light curve requires unusually complex modeling because the lens
and source both have orbiting companions. One of the 3 unambiguous planets,
OGLE-2017-BLG-1275 is the first AnomalyFinder discovery that has a {\it
Spitzer} microlens parallax measurement, , implying
that this planetary system almost certainly lies in the Galactic bulge. In the
order listed, the four planetary events have planet-host mass ratios , and
normalized projected separations , of = ,
, , and . Combined with
previously published events, the 2017 AnomalyFinder prime fields contain 11
unambiguous planets with well-measured and one very likely candidate, of
which 3 are AnomalyFinder discoveries. In addition to these 12, there are three
other unambiguous planets with large uncertainties in .Comment: 67 pages, 13 figures, 16 table
Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. V. Complete Sample of 2018 Prime-Field
We complete the analysis of all 2018 prime-field microlensing planets
identified by the KMTNet AnomalyFinder. Among the 10 previously unpublished
events with clear planetary solutions, 8 are either unambiguously planetary or
are very likely to be planetary in nature: OGLE-2018-BLG-1126,
KMT-2018-BLG-2004, OGLE-2018-BLG-1647, OGLE-2018-BLG-1367, OGLE-2018-BLG-1544,
OGLE-2018-BLG-0932, OGLE-2018-BLG-1212, and KMT-2018-BLG-2718. Combined with
the 4 previously published new AnomalyFinder events and 12 previously published
(or in preparation) planets that were discovered by eye, thismakes a total of
24 2018 prime-field planets discovered or recovered by AnomalyFinder. Together
with a paper in preparation on 2018 sub-prime planets, this work lays the basis
for the first statistical analysis of the planet mass-ratio function based on
planets identified in KMTNet data. By systematically applying the heuristic
analysis of Hwang et al. (2022) to each event, we identify the small
modification in their formalism that is needed to unify the so-called
close/wide and inner/outer degeneracies, as conjectured byComment: 22 pages, 14 tables, 15 figure
Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. X. Complete Sample of 2017 Prime-field Planets
We complete the analysis of planetary candidates found by the KMT AnomalyFinder for the 2017 prime fields that cover ∼13 deg2. We report three unambiguous planets: OGLE-2017-BLG-0640, OGLE-2017-BLG-1275, and OGLE-2017-BLG-1237. The first two of these were not previously identified, while the last was not previously published due to technical complications induced by a nearby variable. We further report that a fourth anomalous event, the previously recognized OGLE-2017-BLG-1777, is very likely to be planetary, although its light curve requires unusually complex modeling because the lens and source both have orbiting companions. One of the three unambiguous planets, OGLE-2017-BLG-1275, is the first AnomalyFinder discovery that has a Spitzer microlens parallax measurement, π E ≃ 0.045 ± 0.015, implying that this planetary system almost certainly lies in the Galactic bulge. In the order listed, the four planetary events have planet-host mass ratios q and normalized projected separations s of (logq, s)=(−2.31, 0.61) , (−2.06, 0.63/1.09), (−2.10, 1.04), and (−2.86, 0.72). Combined with previously published events, the 2017 prime fields contain 11 unambiguous planets with well-measured q and one very likely candidate, of which three are AnomalyFinder discoveries. In addition to these 12, there are three other unambiguous planets with large uncertainties in q
