Shadow Imaging of Transiting Objects

Emily Sandford, David Kipping

We consider the problem of inferring the shape of a transiting object's silhouette from its light curve alone, without assuming a physical model for the object. We model the object…

Evidence for a Large Exomoon Orbiting Kepler-1625b

Alex Teachey, David M. Kipping

Exomoons are the natural satellites of planets orbiting stars outside our solar system, of which there are currently no confirmed examples. We present new observations of a candida…

A second terrestrial planet orbiting the nearby M dwarf LHS 1140

Kristo Ment, Jason A. Dittmann, Nicola Astudillo-Defru +27

LHS 1140 is a nearby mid-M dwarf known to host a temperate rocky super-Earth (LHS 1140 b) on a 24.737-day orbit. Based on photometric observations by MEarth and Spitzer as well as…

On the Rate of Abiogenesis from a Bayesian Informatics Perspective

Jingjing Chen, David Kipping

Life appears to have emerged relatively quickly on the Earth, a fact sometimes used to justify a high rate of spontaneous abiogenesis () among Earth-like worlds. Conditioned upo…
