Details | A new generation of all-sky surveys such as Gaia or ZTF make possible the detection of microlensing events in the entire sky. However, these surveys do not provide sufficient cadence to well constrain the microlensing models, and can especially miss potential planetary deviation. The OMEGA Key Project intends to provide a photometric and spectroscopic follow-up of these events automatically, to start the mapping of exoplanets and stellar remnants in the entire Milky Way. I will describe the observing strategy, as well as the hardware and software architecture developed and finally present the first results. |
