Simulated spatial distribution of lensed events. The dashed vertical line represents the cluster CC. The points represent all 1122 stars above 30.6 mag in Figures 3 and 4. Red and dark blue dots represent detected stars in the TRGB and JAGB regions respectively. Orange dots represent the most luminous stars in the LMC (MJ < 34 before lensing and MJ < 30.6 after lensing). Cyan points represent other stars, mostly highly microlensed red giants intrinsically fainter than the TRGB. The x location of each star was derived from a simple model where μm scales with d as μm = 60″/d. This gives μm = 50 at the maximum d illustrated. The y coordinate shown is a random value between
and
, but this is a compressed scale. The Dragon arc intersects the cluster CC at multiple locations, and the effective y axis is ≈10″ long.
