TIC 366240660 - A Dynamically Active Triple With a Very Short Outer Period of 30.5 Days
S. A. Rappaport, T. Borkovits, G. Torres +17
Methods: We analyze TESS photometric data, radial velocity measurements, and eclipse timing variation curves for the triple star system, TIC 366240660, with a photodynamical code t…
TIC 433545934: The first 2+2 type doubly eclipsing binary with extra, mutual eclipses
Tamás Borkovits, Saul A. Rappaport, Petr Zasche +5
In this work we identify and photodynamically analyze TIC 433545934, the very first doubly eclipsing 2+2-type quadruple stellar system, which shows outer eclipses, too. One such ou…
Towards Instrument-Agnostic Exoplanet Candidate Prioritization
Vivaswan Kopparapu, Sibasish Laha, Brian P. Powell +3
We have developed a novel machine learning (ML) approach for predicting the likelihood of exoplanet candidate confirmation equally capable of performance on both TESS and Kepler da…
TIC 295741342: A Triply-Eclipsing Triple Star System with a Giant Tertiary
Brian P. Powell, Guillermo Torres, Veselin B. Kostov +4
We present the discovery and characterization of TIC 295741342, a triply-eclipsing triple star system with a giant tertiary. The eclipsing binary consists of two similar main-seque…
Trajectory-Agnostic Asteroid Detection in TESS with Deep Learning
Brian P. Powell, Jorge Martinez-Palomera, Amy Tuson +3
We present a novel method for extracting moving objects from TESS data using machine learning. Our approach uses two stacked 3D U-Nets with skip connections, which we call a W-Net,…
52 Eclipsing Quadruple Star Candidates Discovered in TESS Full Frame Images
Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport +25
We present the discovery of 52 eclipsing quadruple star candidates detected in TESS Full Frame Image eleanor data by machine learning and citizen scientists. The uniformly-vetted a…
