Description:
From the Gaia DR2 catalogue we predict astrometric microlensing
events by foreground stars with high proper motion (µ_tot >150mas/yr)
passing a background source in the next decades. Using Gaia DR2
photometry we determine an approximate mass of the lens, which we use
to calculate the expected microlensing effects. This yields 3914
microlensing events by 2875 different lenses between 2010 and 2065
with expected shifts larger than 0.1 mas between the lensed and
unlensed positions of the source. 513 of those are expected to happen
between 2014.5 - 2026.5 and might be measured by Gaia. For 127 events
we also expect a magnification between 1 mmag and 3 mag.

Description:
From the Gaia eDR3 catalogue we predict astrometric microlensing
events by foreground stars with high proper motion (μ > 100 mas/yr)
passing a background source in the next decades. Using Gaia DR3
photometry we determine an approximate mass of the lens, which we use
to calculate the expected microlensing effects. This yields 4842
microlensing events by 3791 different lenses between 2010 and 2066
with expected shifts larger than 0.1 mas between the lensed and
unlensed positions of the source. The past events might be interested
when analyzing the individual Gaia measurements). 685 of those are
expected to happen within the next decade (2021-2031). For 140 events
we also expect a magnification between 1 mmag and 0.6 mag.
