We present an analysis of OGLE 2004-BLG-254, a high-magnification and relatively short duration microlensing event in which the source star, a Bulge K3-giant, has been spatially resolved by a point-like lens. We have obtained dense photometric coverage of the event light curve with OGLE and PLANET telescopes, as well as a high signal-to-noise ratio spectrum taken while the source was still magnified by 20, using the UVES/VLT spectrograph. Our dense coverage of this event allows us to measure limb darkening of the source star in the I and R bands. We also compare previous measurements of linear limb-darkening coefficients involving GK-giant stars with predictions from ATLAS atmosphere models. We discuss the case of K-giants and find a disagreement between limb-darkening measurements and model predictions, which may be caused by the inadequacy of the linear limb-darkening law.

Gravitational microlensing is not only a successful tool for discovering distant exoplanets, but it also enables characterization of the lens and source stars involved in the lensing event. In high magnification events, the lens caustic may cross ove
r the source disk, which allows a determination of the angular size of the source and additionally a measurement of its limb darkening. When such extended-source effects appear close to maximum magnification, the resulting light curve differs from the characteristic Paczynski point-source curve. The exact shape of the light curve close to the peak depends on the limb darkening of the source. Dense photometric coverage permits measurement of the respective limb-darkening coefficients. In the case of microlensing event OGLE 2008-BLG-290, the K giant source star reached a peak magnification of about 100. Thirteen different telescopes have covered this event in eight different photometric bands. Subsequent light-curve analysis yielded measurements of linear limb-darkening coefficients of the source in six photometric bands. The best-measured coefficients lead to an estimate of the source effective temperature of about 4700 +100-200 K. However, the photometric estimate from colour-magnitude diagrams favours a cooler temperature of 4200 +-100 K. As the limb-darkening measurements, at least in the CTIO/SMARTS2 V and I bands, are among the most accurate obtained, the above disagreement needs to be understood. A solution is proposed, which may apply to previous events where such a discrepancy also appeared.
We analyze the single microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-1482 simultaneously observed from two ground-based surveys and from textit{Spitzer}. The textit{Spitzer} data exhibit finite-source effects due to the passage of the lens close to or directly ove
r the surface of the source star as seen from textit{Spitzer}. Such finite-source effects generally yield measurements of the angular Einstein radius, which when combined with the microlens parallax derived from a comparison between the ground-based and the textit{Spitzer} light curves, yields the lens mass and lens-source relative parallax. From this analysis, we find that the lens of OGLE-2015-BLG-1482 is a very low-mass star with the mass $0.10 pm 0.02 M_odot$ or a brown dwarf with the mass $55pm 9 M_{J}$, which are respectively located at $D_{rm LS} = 0.80 pm 0.19 textrm{kpc}$ and $ D_{rm LS} = 0.54 pm 0.08 textrm{kpc}$, and thus it is the first isolated low-mass microlens that has been decisively located in the Galactic bulge. The fundamental reason for the degeneracy is that the finite-source effect is seen only in a single data point from textit{Spitzer} and this single data point gives rise to two solutions for $rho$. Because the $rho$ degeneracy can be resolved only by relatively high cadence observations around the peak, while the textit{Spitzer} cadence is typically $sim 1,{rm day}^{-1}$, we expect that events for which the finite-source effect is seen only in the textit{Spitzer} data may frequently exhibit this $rho$ degeneracy. For OGLE-2015-BLG-1482, the relative proper motion of the lens and source for the low-mass star is $mu_{rm rel} = 9.0 pm 1.9 textrm{mas yr$^{-1}$}$, while for the brown dwarf it is $5.5 pm 0.5 textrm{mas yr$^{-1}$}$. Hence, the degeneracy can be resolved within $sim 10 rm yrs$ from direct lens imaging by using next-generation instruments with high spatial resolution.
We report the discovery of a giant planet in the OGLE-2017-BLG-1522 microlensing event. The planetary perturbations were clearly identified by high-cadence survey experiments despite the relatively short event timescale of $t_{rm E} sim 7.5$ days. Th
e Einstein radius is unusually small, $theta_{rm E} = 0.065,$mas, implying that the lens system either has very low mass or lies much closer to the microlensed source than the Sun, or both. A Bayesian analysis yields component masses $(M_{rm host}, M_{rm planet})=(46_{-25}^{+79}, 0.75_{-0.40}^{+1.26})~M_{rm J}$ and source-lens distance $D_{rm LS} = 0.99_{-0.54}^{+0.91}~{rm kpc}$, implying that this is a brown-dwarf/Jupiter system that probably lies in the Galactic bulge, a location that is also consistent with the relatively low lens-source relative proper motion $mu = 3.2 pm 0.5~{rm mas}~{rm yr^{-1}}$. The projected companion-host separation is $0.59_{-0.11}^{+0.12}~{rm AU}$, indicating that the planet is placed beyond the snow line of the host, i.e., $a_{sl} sim 0.12~{rm AU}$. Planet formation scenarios combined with the small companion-host mass ratio $q sim 0.016$ and separation suggest that the companion could be the first discovery of a giant planet that formed in a protoplanetary disk around a brown dwarf host.
We report the analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-2018-BLG-0677. A small feature in the light curve of the event leads to the discovery that the lens is a star-planet system. Although there are two degenerate solutions that could not be distingui
shed for this event, both lead to a similar planet-host mass ratio. We perform a Bayesian analysis based on a Galactic model to obtain the properties of the system and find that the planet corresponds to a super-Earth/sub-Neptune with a mass $M_{mathrm{planet}} = {3.96}^{+5.88}_{-2.66}mathrm{M_oplus}$. The host star has a mass $ M_{mathrm{host}} = {0.12}^{+0.14}_{-0.08}mathrm{M_odot}$. The projected separation for the inner and outer solutions are ${0.63}^{+0.20}_{-0.17}$~AU and ${0.72}^{+0.23}_{-0.19}$~AU respectively. At $Deltachi^2=chi^2({rm 1L1S})-chi^2({rm 2L1S})=46$, this is by far the lowest $Deltachi^2$ for any securely-detected microlensing planet to date, a feature that is closely connected to the fact that it is detected primarily via a dip rather than a bump.
Aims: We present a detailed analysis of OGLE 2004-BLG-482, a relatively high-magnification single-lens microlensing event which exhibits clear extended-source effects. These events are relatively rare, but they potentially contain unique information
on the stellar atmosphere properties of their source star, as shown in this study. Methods: Our dense photometric coverage of the overall light curve and a proper microlensing modelling allow us to derive measurements of the OGLE 2004-BLG-482 source stars linear limb-darkening coefficients in three bands, including standard Johnson-Cousins I and R, as well as in a broad clear filter. In particular, we discuss in detail the problems of multi-band and multi-site modelling on the expected precision of our results. We also obtained high-resolution UVES spectra as part of a ToO programme at ESO VLT from which we derive the source stars precise fundamental parameters. Results: From the high-resolution UVES spectra, we find that OGLE 2004-BLG-482s source star is a red giant of MK type a bit later than M3, with Teff = 3667 +/- 150 K, log g = 2.1 +/- 1.0 and an assumed solar metallicity. This is confirmed by an OGLE calibrated colour-magnitude diagram. We then obtain from a detailed microlensing modelling of the light curve linear limb-darkening coefficients that we compare to model-atmosphere predictions available in the literature, and find a very good agreement for the I and R bands. In addition, we perform a similar analysis using an alternative description of limb darkening based on a principal component analysis of ATLAS limb-darkening profiles, and also find a very good agreement between measurements and model predictions.
