Abstract
In order to exhume the buried signatures of "missing planetary caustics" in Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) data, we conducted a systematic anomaly search of the residuals from point-source point-lens fits, based on a modified version of the KMTNet EventFinder algorithm. This search revealed the lowest-mass-ratio planetary caustic to date in the microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-1053, for which the planetary signal had not been noticed before. The planetary system has a planet–host mass ratio of q = (1.25 ± 0.13) × 10⁻⁵. A Bayesian analysis yielded estimates of the mass of the host star, M_(host) = 0.61^(+0.29)_(−0.24) M_⊙, the mass of its planet, M_(planet) = 2.48^(+1.19)_(−0.98) M_⊕, the projected planet–host separation, a_⊥=3.4^(+0.5)_(−0.5) au, and the lens distance, D_L = 6.8^(+0.6)_(−0.9) kpc. The discovery of this very-low-mass-ratio planet illustrates the utility of our method and opens a new window for a large and homogeneous sample to study the microlensing planet–host mass ratio function down to q ∼ 10⁻⁵.
