The Microlensing Planet Landscape on the Eve of Roman

Microlensing has now detected hundreds of planets, in large part due to The Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet). Using large, statistical analyses of the KMTNet events, we have measured the planet-star mass ratio function of planets into the super-Earth regime. We have also measured the mass function of free-floating planets. I will discuss these results, their connection to the broader planet population and observed disk substructures, and implications for planet formation theory.
