MOA-2010-BLG-523:" Failed Planet"= RS CVn Star
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Astrophysical Journal. - 0004-637X. ; 763:2
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Galactic bulge source MOA-2010-BLG-523S exhibited short-term deviations from a standard microlensing light curve near the peak of an A(max) similar to 265 high-magnification microlensing event. The deviations originally seemed consistent with expectations for a planetary companion to the principal lens. We combine long-term photometric monitoring with a previously published high-resolution spectrum taken near peak to demonstrate that this is an RS CVn variable, so that planetary microlensing is not required to explain the light-curve deviations. This is the first spectroscopically confirmed RS CVn star discovered in the Galactic bulge.

The first Neptune analog or super-earth with a Neptune-like orbit : MOA-2013-BLG-605LB
- 2016

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present the discovery of the first Neptune analog exoplanet or super-Earth with a Neptune-like orbit, MOA-2013-BLG-605Lb. This planet has a mass similar to that of Neptune or a super-Earth and it orbits at 9 ∼ 14 times the expected position of the snow line, a snow, which is similar to Neptune's separation of 11 a snow from the Sun. The planet/host-star mass ratio is q = (3.6 ± 0.7) × 10-4 and the projected separation normalized by the Einstein radius is s = 2.39 ± 0.05. There are three degenerate physical solutions and two of these are due to a new type of degeneracy in the microlensing parallax parameters, which we designate "the wide degeneracy." The three models have (i) a Neptune-mass planet with a mass of Mp = 21-7 +6M⊕ orbiting a low-mass M-dwarf with a mass of Mh = 0.19-0.06 +0.05M⊙, (ii) a mini-Neptune with Mp = 7.9-1.2 +1.8M⊕ orbiting a brown dwarf host with Mh = 0.068-0.011 +0.019M⊙, and (iii) a super-Earth with Mp = 3.2-0.3 +0.5MM⊕ orbiting a low-mass brown dwarf host with Mh = 0.025-0.0004 +0.005M⊙, which is slightly favored. The 3D planet-host separations are 4.6-1.2 +4.7au, 2.1-0.2 +1.0au, and 0.94-0.02 +0.67au, which are 8.9-1.4 +10.5, 12-1 +7, or 14-1 +11 times larger than a snow for these models, respectively. Keck adaptive optics observations confirm that the lens is faint. This discovery suggests that low-mass planets with Neptune-like orbits are common. Therefore processes similar to the one that formed Neptune in our own solar system or cold super-Earths may be common in other solar systems.

Recension (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- An expert meeting was organized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and held in Stockholm on 15-18 June 1997. The objective of this meeting was to derive consensus toxic equivalency factors (TEFs) for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and diben

Demonstration bridge C: Masonry Arch Structure : Sustainable Bridges Background document 7.4
- 2007
-
Rapport (refereegranskat)abstract
- The bridge was selected as a typical masonry arch bridge for demonstration and testing of the project achievements. The age (built 1875), construction and span length (arch radius 4,97 m) of the structure are representative for masonry bridges in Europe. The bridge also doesn't have any technical documentation as most of old masonry bridges. From the practical point of view it is interesting that the track in service is placed asymmetrically, just on one side of the bridge.Within the works performed on the bridge the following activities can be distinguished:• NDT testing of the structure geometry and material in situ,• Laboratory test of specimens taken form the structure,• Numerical analyses for evaluation of the bridge load capacity and the ultimate load.
