Mass Production of 2021 KMTNet Microlensing Planets. III. Analysis of Three Giant Planets
Shin et al. (2023)
Abstract
We present the analysis of three more planets from the KMTNet 2021 microlensing season. KMT-2021-BLG0119Lb is a ∼6M_Jup planet orbiting an early M dwarf or a K dwarf, KMT-2021-BLG-0192Lb is a ∼2M_Nep planet orbiting an M dwarf, and KMT-2021-BLG-2294Lb is a ∼1.25M_Nep planet orbiting a very-low-mass M dwarf or a brown dwarf. These by-eye planet detections provide an important comparison sample to the sample selected with the AnomalyFinder algorithm, and in particular, KMT-2021-BLG-2294 is a case of a planet detected by eye but not by algorithm. KMT-2021-BLG-2294Lb is part of a population of microlensing planets around very-low-mass host stars that spans the full range of planet masses, in contrast to the planet population at <~ 0.1 au, which shows a strong preference for small planets.
