Rare exoplanet transits observed from Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Of the 870+ southern planetary candidates from TESS currently awaiting confirmation, roughly 10% have transit durations longer than five hours; over a third of these also have orbital periods longer than 20 days.

Monitoring and analyzing exoplanetary transits from Argentina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Photometric observations of transits can be used to derive physical and orbital parameters of the system, like the planetary and stellar radius, orbital inclination and mean density of the star.

Computing Transiting Exoplanet Parameters with 1D Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesAxioms
The transit method allows the detection and characterization of planetary systems by analyzing stellar light curves. Convolutional neural networks appear to offer a viable solution for automating these analyses.

TESS Spots a Super-puff: The Remarkably Low Density of TOI-1420b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present the discovery of TOI-1420b, an exceptionally low-density ( ρ = 0.08 ± 0.02 g cm ^−3 ) transiting planet in a P = 6.96 days orbit around a late G-dwarf star.

Transit timing, depth, and duration variation in exoplanet TrES-2?

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
We report on our ongoing search for timing, duration, and depth variations in the exoplanet TrES-2. In Raetz et al. (2009) we already presented ten different transits obtained at the University Observatory Jena.

Exoplanet Nodal Precession Induced by Rapidly Rotating Stars: Impacts on Transit Probabilities and Biases

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
For the majority of short-period exoplanets transiting massive stars with radiative envelopes, the spin angular momentum of the host star is greater than the planetary orbital angular momentum.

Political transformations in the CEE post-communist countries: theoretical and metodological approaches

open access: yesІсторико-політичні проблеми сучасного світу, 2017
Theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of political transformations in the CEE post-communist countries have been analyzed. The author argues that democratic transits do not guarantee transition to democracy and its consolidation.

Assuring the Legacy of the CoRoT Planets

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
For the long-lasting impact of CoRoT’s planet findings, precise knowledge of the times of their transits is of vital importance for any future observing campaigns.

Transits in poorly sampled data - Gaia and beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Gaia, an ESA cornerstone mission, will obtain of the order of 100 high-precision photometric observations over five years for tens of millions of stars with V < 17. The vast number of red dwarfs in this data set, with their correspondingly deep (high S/N)

A study of shock impacts and vibration dose values onboard highspeed marine craft

open access: yes, 2008
The shocks and impacts encountered on small high-speed craft exceed the limits set for safe working practice according to current standards. European legislation regarding the exposure to vibration will have far reaching effects on the operators of such ...
