Description

Microlensing is the only tool to discover and study a population of hidden dark compact objects, including neutron stars, black holes and even the primordial black holes which could form part of the dark matter. We will show how LSST will contribute to this topic, with long-term whole sky observations and depth. We will discuss the lessons learned from Gaia and OGLE surveys which can be applied to LSST.
