Planetary Habitability Under the Light of a Rapidly Changing Star

Tara Fetherolf, Sadie G. Welter, Colby M. Ostberg +3

Planetary atmospheric energy budgets primarily depend on stellar incident flux. However, stellar variability can have major consequences for the evolution of planetary climates. In…

Variability Catalog of Stars Observed During the TESS Prime Mission

Tara Fetherolf, Joshua Pepper, Emilie Simpson +10

During its 2-year Prime Mission, TESS observed over 232,000 stars at a 2-min cadence across ~70% of the sky. These data provide a record of photometric variability across a range o…

Revisiting BD-06 1339b: A Likely False Positive Caused by Stellar Activity

Emilie Simpson, Tara Fetherolf, Stephen R. Kane +3

As long as astronomers have searched for exoplanets, the intrinsic variability of host stars has interfered with the ability to reliably detect and confirm exoplanets. One particul…
