Direct Lens Imaging of Galactic Bulge Microlensing Events
  Recently, from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images of one of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) events taken 6.3 years after the original lensing measurement, Alcock et al. were able to directly image the lens. Although the first resolved lens was identified for an LMC event, much more numerous lenses are expected to be resolved for Galactic bulge events. In this paper, we estimate the fraction of Galactic bulge events whose lenses can be directly imaged under the assumption that all bulge events are caused by normal stars. For this determination, we compute the distribution of lens proper motions of the currently detected Galactic bulge events based on standard models of the geometrical and kinematical distributions of lenses and their mass function. We then apply realistic criteria for lens resolution, and the result is presented as a function of the time elapsed after an original lensing measurement, $\Delta t$. If followup observations are performed by using an instrument with a resolving power of \theta_{PSF}=0.1'', which corresponds to that of HST equipped with the new Advanced Camera for Surveys, we estimate that lenses can be resolved for ~ 3% and 22% of disk-bulge events and for ~0.3% and 6% of bulge self-lensing events after $\Delta t=10$ and 20 years, respectively. The fraction increases substantially with the increase of the resolving power. If the instrument has a resolution of \theta_{PSF}=0.05'', which can be achieved by the {\it Next Generation Space Telescope}, we estimate that lenses can be resolved for $\sim 22%$ and 45% of disk-bulge events and for ~6% and 23% of bulge self-lensing events after \Delta t=10 and 20 years, respectively.
