MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb: a massive planet characterized by combining light-curve analysis and Keck AO imaging

We report the discovery of a microlensing planet—MOA-2016-BLG-227Lb—with a large planet/host mass ratio of q ≃ 9 × 10 −3 . This event was located near the K2 Campaign 9 field that was observed by a large number of telescopes. As a result, the event was in the microlensing survey area of a number of...
