The POINT-AGAPE Survey: Comparing Automated Searches of Microlensing Events toward M31 / Tsapras, Y ; Carr, B J ; Weston, M J ; Kerins, E ; Baillon, P (CERN) ; Gould, A ; Paulin-Henriksson, S
Searching for microlensing in M31 using automated superpixel surveys raises a number of difficulties which are not present in more conventional techniques. Here we focus on the problem that the list of microlensing candidates is sensitive to the selection criteria or "cuts" imposed and some subjectivity is involved in this. [...]

POINT-AGAPE Pixel Lensing Survey of M31 : Evidence for a MACHO contribution to Galactic Halos / Calchi Novati, Sebastiano ; Paulin-Henriksson, S. ; An, J. ; Baillon, P. ; Belokurov, V. ; Carr, Bernard J. ; Creze, M. ; Evans, N.W. ; Giraud-Heraud, Y. ; Gould, A. et al.
The POINT-AGAPE collaboration is carrying out a search for gravitational microlensing toward M31 to reveal galactic dark matter in the form of MACHOs (Massive Astrophysical Compact Halo Objects) in the halos of the Milky Way and M31. A high-threshold analysis of 3 years of data yields 6 bright, short--duration microlensing events, which are confronted to a simulation of the observations and the analysis. [...]

The POINT-AGAPE survey II: An Unrestricted Search for Microlensing Events towards M31 / Belokurov, V ; An, J ; Evans, N W ; Hewett, P C ; Baillon, Paul ; Novati, S C ; Carr, B J ; Creze, M ; Giraud-Héraud, Yannick ; Gould, A et al.
An automated search is carried out for microlensing events using a catalogue of 44554 variable superpixel lightcurves derived from our three-year monitoring program of M31. Each step of our candidate selection is objective and reproducible by a computer. [...]
