When astronomers detect new exoplanets they typically do so using one of two techniques. First, there’s the famous transit technique, which looks for slight dips in light as a planet passes in front of its host star, and second is the radial velocity technique, which senses the motion of a star due to the gravitational … Continue reading "First Microlensing Detection of a Planet Circling a Brown Dwarf Candidate"
