Disrupted Exoplanet Systems in the SuperWASP Archive [PDF]

open access: green, 2020
The aim of this research project has been to search for disrupted or disintegrating exoplanets; this search has been carried out using archival data from the Super-WASP (Wide Angle Search for Planets) transit photometry detection programme. The main aim of the archival search was to look for objects similar to Kepler-1520b (Rappaport et al., 2012) and ...

Follow-Up and Validation of K2 and TESS Planetary Systems With Keck NIRC2 Adaptive Optics Imaging

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
High resolution imaging (HRI) is a critical part of the transiting exoplanet follow-up and validation process. HRI allows previously unresolved stellar companions and background blends to be resolved, vetting false positive signals and improving the ...

VaTEST. II. Statistical Validation of 11 TESS-detected Exoplanets Orbiting K-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is an all-sky survey mission designed to find transiting exoplanets orbiting nearby bright stars. It has identified more than 329 transiting exoplanets, and almost 6000 candidates remain unvalidated. In

Statistical Trends in the Obliquity Distribution of Exoplanet Systems [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2018
Important clues to the formation and evolution of planetary systems can be inferred from the stellar obliquity ψ. We study the distribution of obliquities using the California-Kepler Survey and the TEPCat Catalog of Rossiter–McLaughlin (RM) measurements,

'exoplanet': Gradient-based probabilistic inference for exoplanet data & other astronomical time series [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Open Source Software, 2021
"exoplanet"is a toolkit for probabilistic modeling of astronomical time series data, with a focus on observations of exoplanets, using PyMC3 (Salvatier et al., 2016).

Validating AU Microscopii d with Transit Timing Variations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
AU Mic is a young (22 Myr), nearby exoplanetary system that exhibits excess transit timing variations (TTVs) that cannot be accounted for by the two known transiting planets nor stellar activity.

Planet–Planet Occultations in TRAPPIST-1 and Other Exoplanet Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We explore the occurrence and detectability of planet–planet occultations (PPOs) in exoplanet systems. These are events during which a planet occults the disk of another planet in the same system, imparting a small photometric signal as its thermal or ...

DYNAMIC EVOLUTION EXOPLANET SYSTEMS, MOVING IN ORBITAL RESONANCES WITH THE ACCOUNT OF SECULAR PERTURBATION FROM N BODIES

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Equations of exoplanet's motion connected with orbital Lindblad resonances with the account of secular terms caused by gravitational non-resonant perturbation are derived. Qualitative researches of orbital evolution modeling exoplanet systems are carried
