Scientific paper

The observed light curve of a star in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)
published in Alcock et al. 1993 cannot be fitted to a symmetric light
curve due to gravitational microlensing by a single dark object in the
Galactic halo. We show that a binary lens producing an asymmetric light
curve can overcome the discepancy.
