Gaia16aye microlensing event monitoring
Abstract:
Monitoring the ongoing microlensing event Gaia16aye to catch transient behavior and generate a well-sampled lightcurve during caustic crossings.
Justification:
A well-sampled lightcurve is needed to constrain geometry and some physical parameters of the lens and the lensed star.
