Microlensing events from galactic globular clusters |
|
Abstract |
I will present an analysis of the large set of microlensing events detected so far toward the Galactic center with the purpose of investigating whether some of the dark lenses are located in Galactic globular clusters. In four cases some events might indeed be due to lenses located in the globular clusters themselves. One can also make a rough estimate for the average mass of the lenses, which are most probably either brown dwarfs, M-stars or stellar remnants. |
