Tidal Synchronization of TESS Eclipsing Binaries
Marshall Hobson-Ritz, Jessica Birky, Leah Peterson +7
Tidal synchronization plays a fundamental role in the evolution of binary star systems. However, key details such as the timescale of synchronization, efficiency of tidal dissipati…
Analytic Light Curve for Mutual Transits of Two Bodies Across a Limb-darkened Star
Tyler A. Gordon, Eric Agol
We present a solution for the light curve of two bodies mutually transiting a star with polynomial limb darkening. The term "mutual transit" in this work refers to a transit of the…
exoplanet: Gradient-based probabilistic inference for exoplanet data & other astronomical time series
Daniel Foreman-Mackey, Rodrigo Luger, Eric Agol +13
"exoplanet" is a toolkit for probabilistic modeling of astronomical time series data, with a focus on observations of exoplanets, using PyMC3 (Salvatier et al., 2016). PyMC3 is a f…
Stellar Rotation in the K2 Sample: Evidence for Modified Spindown
Tyler A. Gordon, James R. A. Davenport, Ruth Angus +5
We analyze light curves of 284,834 unique K2 targets using a Gaussian process model with a quasi-periodic kernel function. By crossmatching K2 stars to observations from Gaia Data…
A Fast, 2D Gaussian Process Method Based on Celerite: Applications to Transiting Exoplanet Discovery and Characterization
Tyler Gordon, Eric Agol, Daniel Foreman-Mackey
Gaussian processes (GPs) are commonly used as a model of stochastic variability in astrophysical time series. In particular, GPs are frequently employed to account for correlated s…
