About this course

Microlensing events occur when a star passes in front of a more distant star. This bends the light, causing the distant star to brighten temporarily. By analyzing this brightening curve, astronomers can detect the presence of exoplanets orbiting the lensing star. This method is particularly sensitive to planets in wide orbits. Microlensing surveys monitor millions of stars, searching for these subtle brightness changes. It's an essential tool for discovering planets beyond our solar system, especially those far from their host stars. Want to understand the universe better?
