Microlensing observations rapid search for exoplanets: morse code for GPUs.

McDOUGALL A. and ALBROW M.D.

Abstract (from CDS):

The rapid analysis of ongoing gravitational microlensing events has been integral to the successful detection and characterization of cool planets orbiting low-mass stars in the Galaxy. In this paper, we present an implementation of search and fit techniques on graphical processing unit (GPU) hardware. The method allows for the rapid identification of candidate planetary microlensing events and their subsequent follow-up for detailed characterization.
