    Direct detection of a microlens in the Milky Way

    The nature of dark matter remains mysterious, with luminous material accounting for at most ∼25 per cent of the baryons in the Universe1,2. We accordingly undertook a survey looking for the microlensing of stars ...

    The MACHO Project 5.7 Year LMC Results

    The MACHO collaboration has analyzed 5.7years of photometry on approximately 11.7 million stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in a search for gravitational microlensing events. Two sets of cuts were used...

    A Dedicated Camera For Extragalactic Planetary Nebulae: The Planetary Nebula Spectrograph

    Photometry in [OIII] emission of Planetary Nebulae in external galaxies can be used to determine distances as great as that of the Virgo cluster and beyond, as forcefully argued elsewhere during this conferenc...

    Properties of LMC Planetary Nebulae and Parent Populations in the MACHO Database

    The MACHO microlensing experiment’s time-sampled photometry database contains blue and red lightcurves for nearly 9 million stars in the central bar region of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We have identifi...

    Bulge δ Scuti Stars in the Macho Database

    We describe the search for δ Scuti stars in the MACHO database of bulge fields. Concentrating on a sample of high amplitude δ Scutis, we examine the light curves and pulsation modes. We also discuss their spat...

    Statistical Issues in the MACHO Project

    The MACHO project is an ongoing survey project which collects photometric timeseries data on roughly 20 million stars in the LMC, SMC, and Galactic bulge. The data is irregularly time sampled, largely due to w...

    Optical variability of the LMC supersoft source RX J0513.9-6951

    We present optical spectroscopy and photometry of the LMC supersoft source (SSS) RX J0513.9-6951. Through the exceptional monitoring capabilities of the MACHO project, we show the optical history of this objec...

    Nickel, argon and cobalt in the infrared spectrum of SN1987A: the core becomes visible

    Infrared spectra of supernova 1987A taken in April and November 1987 from the Kuiper Airborne Observatory (KAO) show two distinctly different stages in the evolution of the expanding gas shell. In April both t...
