Feasibility of transit photometry of nearby debris discs [PDF]
Dust in debris discs is constantly replenished by collisions between larger objects. In this paper, we investigate a method to detect these collisions. We generate models based on recent results on the Fomalhaut debris disc, where we simulate a background star transiting behind the disc, due to the proper motion of Fomalhaut.

Transit and Regional Economic Development
The types of jobs locating near transit are changing, and the ones that have grown are the places where our economy is likely to continue adding jobs such as professional sectors.

Precision photometry for planetary transits
We review the state of the art in follow-up photometry for planetary transit searches. Three topics are discussed: (1) Photometric monitoring of planets discovered by radial velocity to detect possible transits (2) Follow-up photometry of candidates from photometric transit searches to weed out eclipsing binaries and false positives (3) High-precision ...

Theoretical maximum capacity as a benchmark for empty vehicle redistribution in personal rapid transit [PDF]
A personal rapid transit system uses compact, computer-guided vehicles running on dedicated guideways to carry individuals or small groups directly between pairs of stations.

Validating the Orbital Periods of the Coolest TESS Planet Candidates
When an exoplanet passes in front of its host star, the resulting eclipse causes an observable decrease in stellar flux, and when multiple such transits are detected, the orbital period of the exoplanet can be determined. Over the past seven years NASA’s
