在预测的中透镜事件期间搜索行星：II。PLAN-IT：观测程序及其对VB 10的应用
Searching for Planets During Predicted Mesolensing Events: II. PLAN-IT: An Observing Program and its Application to VB 10
摘要：
透镜事件的成功预测是一项令人兴奋的新事业，它为发现和研究行星系提供了机会。配套文件调查的基本理论。这篇论文致力于概述观测计划的组成部分，这些计划可以发现围绕被预测为接近背景恒星的恒星运行的行星。如果能够很好地预测最接近的时间和距离，那么系统就可以有针对性地进行个性化研究。然而，在大多数情况下，预测将是不精确的，只产生一组可能的接近路径和事件时间。我们必须监测这些系统的集合，以确保发现，这是一种可能的战略，类似于一些当前的调查，包括PTF和Pan-STARRS;新星搜索，包括业余爱好者进行的搜索;正在进行的透镜计划，如MOA和OGLE;以及MEarth，开普勒和其他凌日研究。如果设计得好，监测程序将保证要么发现轨道半长轴小于两个爱因斯坦半径的行星，要么排除它们的存在。在更宽轨道上的行星可能不会被发现，但如果它们很常见，将在潜在透镜群产生的事件中被发现。我们认为VB 10的影响，第一颗恒星，使一个预测的方法是足够接近的背景恒星，让行星被发现。VB 10并不是一个理想的案例，但它非常值得研究。这项工作的更简明摘要和供观察员参考的资料可在https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jmatthews/vb10.html上查阅。
英文摘要：
The successful prediction of lensing events is a new and exciting enterprise that provides opportunities to discover and study planetary systems. The companion paper investigates the underlying theory. This paper is devoted to outlining the components of observing programs that can discover planets orbiting stars predicted to make a close approach to a background star. If the time and distance of closest approach can be well predicted, then the system can be targeted for individual study. In most cases, however, the predictions will be imprecise, yielding only a set of probable paths of approach and event times. We must monitor an ensemble of such systems to ensure discovery, a strategy possible with observing programs similar to a number of current surveys, including PTF and Pan-STARRS; nova searches, including those conducted by amateurs; ongoing lensing programs such as MOA and OGLE; as well as MEarth, Kepler and other transit studies. If well designed, the monitoring programs will be guaranteed to either discover planets in orbits with semi-major axes smaller than about two Einstein radii, or else to rule out their presence. Planets on wider orbits may not all be discovered, but if they are common, will be found among the events generated by ensembles of potential lenses. We consider the implications for VB 10, the first star to make a predicted approach to a background star that is close enough to allow planets to be discovered. VB 10 is not an ideal case, but it is well worth studying. A more concise summary of this work, and information for observers can be found at https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jmatthews/vb10.html.
