Assessing the Impact of High-Resolution Imaging on Statistical Validation of TESS Planet Candidates

Michael Collier, Steven Giacalone, Brian Derfer +38

High-resolution imaging is widely used to constrain false-positive scenarios in exoplanet validation, but it is a finite follow-up resource that reaches only a subset of candidates…

Classification of Eclipsing Binary Light Curves in Gaia DR3: A Machine Learning Approach

Bedri Keskin, Özgür Baştürk

Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) presents a unique dataset with approximately 2.1 million eclipsing binary star candidates. The unsustainability of manually classifying such a large volum…

Transit timing variation analysis of the low-mass brown dwarf KELT-1 b

Ö. Baştürk, J. Southworth, S. Yalçınkaya +8

We investigate whether there is a variation in the orbital period of the short-period brown dwarf-mass KELT-1\,b, which is one of the best candidates to observe orbital decay. We o…

Investigation of an orbital decay and global modeling of the planet WASP-43 b

Fatemeh Davoudi, Özgür Baştürk, Selçuk Yalçınkaya +2

WASP-43 b is one of the most important candidates for detecting an orbital decay. We investigate pieces of evidence for this expectation as variations in its transit timings, based…
