PLATO input catalogs for technical calibration and fine guidance
René Heller, Chen Jiang, Paz Bluhm +18
A few weeks after launch, the PLATO spacecraft is expected to start its payload commissioning, which will be completed within the first three months of the mission. This phase incl…
Detecting false positives with PLATO using double-aperture photometry and centroid shifts
F. Gutiérrez-Canales, R. Samadi, A. Birch +6
PLATO will discover exoplanets around Sun-like stars through transit photometry and characterize their host stars using asteroseismology. Since photometry for most PLATO targets wi…
Impact of Charge Transfer Inefficiency on transit light-curves: A correction strategy for PLATO
Shaunak Mishra, Reza Samadi, Diane Bérard
PLATO is designed to detect Earth-sized exoplanets around solar-type stars and to measure their radii with accuracy better than \(2\%\) via the transit method. Charge transfer inef…
Activity of low mass stars in the light of spot signature in the Fourier domain
Lucie Degott, Frederic Baudin, Reza Samadi +2
Context. Magnetic fields exhibit a wide variety of behaviours in low mass stars and further characterization is required to understand these observations. Stellar photometry from s…
