I-band LC of the microlensing event KMT-2017-BLG-2820

It is the third FFP candidate found in an ongoing study of giant-source finite-source point-lens (FSPL) events in the KMTNet database and the sixth FSPL FFP candidate overall. We find no significant evidence for a host.

Based on their timescale distributions and detection rates, we argue that five of these six FSPL FFP candidates are drawn from the same population as the six point-source point-lens (PSPL) FFP candidates found by Mroz et al. in the OGLE-IV database. The {theta}E distribution of the FSPL FFPs implies that they are either sub- Jovian planets in the bulge or super-Earths in the disk. However, the apparent "Einstein desert" (10<~{theta}E/{mu}as<~30) would argue for the latter.
