Twenty One Years of the OGLE Survey

OGLE: The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment ( ….) Four Phases of the OGLE Project OGLE-I ( ). 1 m Swope telescope at LCO. ~2 million stars observed. Microlensing OGLE-II ( ). 1.3 m Warsaw telescope. ~40 million stars observed. Variable and non-Variable Stars in GB, MC OGLE-III (2001– 2009). 8k x 8k mosaic CCD. ~200 million stars observed (GB, GD, MC).

OGLE-2005-BLG-390 Planet/star mass ratio: q~ Mass of the planet: ~6 Earth masses. The least massive planet at the discovery

MOA-II Survey (2006– …)

Microlensing Planets – results ~30 microlensing planets found since the first announcement in 2004 (~20 published so far) First cool super-Earths of 3-10 Earth masses: low mass planets are common OGLE-2006-BLG-109: analog of the solar system (multiplanetary system: Jupiter+Saturn like) First estimations of the frequency of planets at and behind the snow line 2003– 2007: the discovery rate 0-1 exoplanets per season 2007–2010: the discovery rate of 2-4 exoplanets per season

Main Potential of Microlensing Full status and characterization of exoplanets in regions located AU from Host Stars (the regions at and behind the Snow Line) Status of exoplanets around wide range of types of Host Stars Discovery of low mass planets from the ground

Second Generation Planetary Microlensing Survey Survey and Follow-up in one Network of 12-m class telescopes over the globe with large field (>1 square degs) cameras Monitoring of the most microlensing efficient parts of the Galactic bulge with the cadence of ~15 minutes No missing planets, easier estimation of survey statistics Estimations: A network of three 1.32 m telescopes: the detection of 14 Earth mass planets, 1015 super- Earths, 100 Jupiter mass planets per year Five year long survey should provide resonable large sample of planets for estimation of the census of exoplanets down to Earth mass at orbits of AU

2012 Planetary Microlensing

Free-Floating Planets Microlensing event characteristic time: t E =R E /v tr R E ~sqrt(M lens ) t E ~sqrt(M lens ) t E < 2 days – lensing object has planetary mass High cadence observations needed for detection : (OGLE-IV: min.) MOA and OGLE data from : 10 short-lived microlensing events of likely planetary mass. No trace of host stars: population of unbound (FFP) or very distant exoplanets. OGLE-IV data much better suited : preliminary estimation – 2011 season: ~40 events with t E < 2 days (shortest corespond statistically to a few Earth mass objects) Origin: gravitational interactions – stellar encounters, ejection of planets during planetary system formation
