The NEID Earth Twin Survey. I. Confirmation of a 31-day planet orbiting HD 86728
Arvind F. Gupta, Jacob K. Luhn, Jason T. Wright +21
With close to three years of observations in hand, the NEID Earth Twin Survey (NETS) is starting to unearth new astrophysical signals for a curated sample of bright, radial velocit…
Data-Driven Modeling of Telluric Features and Stellar Variability with StellarSpectraObservationFitting.jl
Christian Gilbertson, Eric B. Ford, Samuel Halverson +11
A significant barrier to achieving the radial velocity (RV) measurement accuracy and precision required to characterize terrestrial mass exoplanets is the existence of time-variabl…
The death of Vulcan: NEID reveals the planet candidate orbiting HD 26965 is stellar activity
Abigail Burrows, Samuel Halverson, Jared C. Siegel +17
We revisit the long-studied radial velocity (RV) target HD26965 using recent observations from the NASA-NSF 'NEID' precision Doppler facility. Leveraging a suite of classical activ…
Developing a Drift Rate Distribution for Technosignature Searches of Exoplanets
Megan G. Li, Sofia Z. Sheikh, Christian Gilbertson +4
A stable-frequency transmitter with relative radial acceleration to a receiver will show a change in received frequency over time, known as a "drift rate''. For a transmission from…
A Green Bank Telescope search for narrowband technosignatures between 1.1-1.9 GHz during 12 Kepler planetary transits
Sofia Z. Sheikh, Shubham Kanodia, Emily Lubar +12
A growing avenue for determining the prevalence of life beyond Earth is to search for "technosignatures" from extraterrestrial intelligences/agents. Technosignatures require signif…
Impact of Correlated Noise on the Mass Precision of Earth-analog Planets in Radial Velocity Surveys
Jacob K. Luhn, Eric B. Ford, Zhao Guo +6
Characterizing the masses and orbits of near-Earth-mass planets is crucial for interpreting observations from future direct imaging missions (e.g., HabEx, LUVOIR). Therefore, the E…
The EXPRES Stellar Signals Project II. State of the Field in Disentangling Photospheric Velocities
Lily L. Zhao, Debra A. Fischer, Eric B. Ford +40
Measured spectral shifts due to intrinsic stellar variability (e.g., pulsations, granulation) and activity (e.g., spots, plages) are the largest source of error for extreme precisi…
A Stellar Activity F-statistic for Exoplanet Surveys (SAFE)
Parker H. Holzer, Jessi Cisewski-Kehe, Lily Zhao +3
In the search for planets orbiting distant stars the presence of stellar activity in the atmospheres of observed stars can obscure the radial velocity signal used to detect such pl…
Stability Constrained Characterization of Multiplanet Systems
Daniel Tamayo, Christian Gilbertson, Daniel Foreman-Mackey
Many discovered multiplanet systems are tightly packed. This implies that wide parameter ranges in masses and orbital elements can be dynamically unstable and ruled out. We present…
Predicting the long-term stability of compact multiplanet systems
Daniel Tamayo, Miles Cranmer, Samuel Hadden +11
We combine analytical understanding of resonant dynamics in two-planet systems with machine learning techniques to train a model capable of robustly classifying stability in compac…
