Scientific paper

When microlensing surveys were first undertaken a decade ago, their focus was overwhelmingly on dark matter. They have indeed fulfilled their original promise by ruling out massive compact halo objects (Machos) as the dominant form of dark matter over 8 decades of mass. However, microlensing has now developed a number of other important applications including searching for planets and probing the atmospheres of stars. More applications are promised in both the near and distant future. .
