Abstract (from CDS):

The reduction of the K2's Campaign 9 (K2C9) microlensing data is challenging mostly because of the very crowded field and the unstable pointing of the spacecraft. In this work, we present the first method that can extract microlensing signals from this K2C9 data product. The raw light curves and the astrometric solutions are first derived using the techniques from Soares-Furtado et al. and Huang et al. for K2 dense field photometry. We then minimize and remove the systematic effect by performing simultaneous modeling with the microlensing signal. We also derive precise (Kp-I) versus (V-I) color-color relations that can predict the microlensing source flux in the Kepler bandpass. By implementing the color-color relation in the light curve modeling, we show that the microlensing parameters can be better constrained. Finally, we use two example microlensing events, OGLE-2016-BLG-0980 and OGLE-2016-BLG-0940, to test our method.
