--------------------------------------------- PLANET ANOMALY ALERT 2006 #13 (issued 15-Aug, 7:30 UT) --------------------------------------------- Anomaly near expected peak of MOA 2006-BLG-132 Dear Colleagues, data collected by PLANET with the Canopus 1.0m (near Hobart, Tasmania) after HJD=2453962.010 (14-Aug, 12:14 UT) showed a stronger rise than predicted by a previous model and refused to be explained by microlensing of a point source due to a single star. This stronger rise appears to coincide with the second half of a dip observed by MOA after HJD=2453961.796 (14-Aug, 7:06 UT). Moreover, a recent data point observed by PLANET with the Danish 1.54m at ESO LaSilla (Chile) at HJD=2453962.547 (15-Aug, 1:08 UT) is significantly above the previously favoured model light curve. In order to characterize the origin of the deviation, further observations at this time are strongly encouraged. A light curve plot as well as data are available on our webpages. Event: MOA 2006-BLG-132 RA (J2000): 17:54:9.01 Dec (J2000): -35:18:6.7 The uncalibrated baseline I magnitude reported by the MOA team is 19.39.
