Imagine that you are observing a bright star in the bulge of our
galaxy, eight kilo-parsecs away. While you are observing it, a much
fainter star in the disk of our galaxy passes nearly in-front of
the bright star. The faint star is only three kilo-parsecs away.
The faint star micro- lenses the bright background star. The faint
star is orbited by a Jupiter-like planet. What observations would
you need to make to detect the micro-lensing event? What would you
expect to see? Explain your answers. (10 Marks)
Please write a COMPLETE explanation (NOT a few sentences and
dots.)
