Are We There Yet? Challenges in Quantifying the Frequency of Earth Analogs in the Habitable Zone
Rachel B. Fernandes, Samson Johnson, Galen J. Bergsten +43
Searching for life elsewhere in the universe is one of the most highly prioritized pursuits in astronomy today. However, the ability to observe evidence of Earth-like life through…
Why Estimating is Difficult: A Kepler-Centric Perspective
Steve Bryson, Michelle Kunimoto, Ruslan Belikov +13
, the occurrence rate of rocky habitable zone exoplanets orbiting Sun-like stars, is of great interest to both the astronomical community and the general public. The Ke…
Scaling K2 VIII: Short-Period Sub-Neptune Occurrence Rates Peak Around Early-Type M Dwarfs
Kevin K. Hardegree-Ullman, Galen J. Bergsten, Jessie L. Christiansen +6
We uniformly combined data from the NASA Kepler and K2 missions to compute planet occurrence rates across the entire FGK and M dwarf stellar range. The K2 mission, driven by target…
Signatures of Atmospheric Mass Loss and Planet Migration in the Time Evolution of Short-Period Transiting Exoplanets
Rachel B. Fernandes, Galen J. Bergsten, Gijs D. Mulders +19
Comparative studies of young and old exoplanet populations offer a glimpse into how planets may form and evolve with time. We present an occurrence rate study of short-period (1…
