Abstract (from CDS):

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) x 10–5. A Bayesian analysis yielded estimates of the mass of the host star, Mhost=0.61–0.24+0.29M☉, the mass of its planet, Mplanet=2.48–0.98+1.19M⊕, the projected planet-host separation, a⊥=3.4–0.5+0.5 au, and the lens distance, DL=6.8–0.9+0.6 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.
