dc.description.abstractWe present the analysis of a microlensing event KMT-2022-BLG-0086 of which the overall light curve is not described by a binary-lens single-source (2L1S) model, which suggests the existence of an extra lens or an extra source. We found that the event is best explained by the binary-lens binary-source (2L2S) model, but the 2L2S model is only favored over the triple-lens single-source (3L1S) model by Δχ<sup>2</sup> ≃ 9. Although the event has noticeable anomalies around the peak of the light curve, they are not enough covered to constrain the angular Einstein radius θ<inf>E</inf>, thus we only measure the minimum angular Einstein radius <inf>E,min</inf>. From the Bayesian analysis, it is found that that the binary lens system is a binary star with masses of (m<inf>1</inf>, m<inf>2</inf>) = (0.46<sup>+</sup><inf>0.25 _</inf><sup>0.35</sup> M , 0.75<sup>+</sup><inf>0.55 _</inf><sup>0.67</sup> M ) at a distance of D<inf>L</inf> = 5.87<sup>+</sup><inf>1.79 _</inf><sup>1.21</sup> kpc, while the triple lens system is a brown dwarf or a massive giant planet in a low-mass binary-star system with masses of (m<inf>1</inf>, m<inf>2</inf>, m<inf>3</inf>) = (0.43<sup>+</sup><inf>0.35 _</inf><sup>0.41</sup> M , 0.056<sup>+</sup><inf>0.047 _</inf><sup>0.055</sup> M , 20.84<sup>+</sup><inf>17.04 _</inf><sup>20.20</sup> M<inf>J</inf>) at a distance of D<inf>L</inf> = 4.06<sup>+</sup><inf>3.28 _</inf><sup>1.39</sup> kpc, indicating a disk lens system. The 2L2S model yields the relative lens-source proper motion of μ<inf>rel</inf> ≥ 4.6 mas yr<sup>−1</sup> that is consistent with the Bayesian result, whereas the 3L1S model yields μ<inf>rel</inf> ≥ 18.9 mas yr<sup>−1</sup>, which is more than three times larger than that of a typical disk object of ∼6 mas yr<sup>−1</sup> and thus is not consistent with the Bayesian result. This suggests that the event is likely caused by the binary-lens binary-source model.
