LENSKY: Galactic Microlensing Probability
Robert J. Nemiroff
Michigan Technological University
Abstract:
Given a model for the Galaxy, this program computes the microlensing
rate in any direction. Program features include the ability to
include the brightness of the lens and to compute the probability of
lens detection at any level of lensing amplification. The program
limits itself to lensing by single stars of single sources.
The program is currently setup to accept input from the
Galactic models of Bahcall and Soniera (1982, 1986).
