The Influence of Stellar Chromospheres and Coronae on Exoplanet Transmission Spectroscopy

Volker Perdelwitz, Adam Chaikin-Lifshitz, Aviv Ofir +1

A main source of bias in transmission spectroscopy of exoplanet atmospheres is magnetic activity of the host star in the form of stellar spots, faculae or flares. However, the fact…

Planetary Mass Determinations from a Simplified Photodynamical Model -- Application To The Complete Kepler Dataset

Aviv Ofir, Gideon Yoffe, Oded Aharonson

We use PyDynamicaLC, a model using the least number of, and the least correlated, degrees of freedom needed to derive a photodynamical model, to describe some of the smallest -- an…

The Advantages of Global Photometric Models in Fitting Transit Variations

Yair Judkovsky, Aviv Ofir, Oded Aharonson

Estimation of planetary orbital and physical parameters from light-curve data relies heavily on the accurate interpretation of Transit Timing Variations (TTV) measurements. In this…

Kepler Multi-Transiting Systems Physical Properties and Impact Parameter Variations

Yair Judkovsky, Aviv Ofir, Oded Aharonson

We fit a dynamical model to Kepler systems that contain four or more transiting planets using the analytic method AnalyticLC, and obtain physical and orbital parameters for 101 pla…

Physical Properties and Impact Parameter Variations of Kepler Planets from Analytic Light Curve Modeling

Yair Judkovsky, Aviv Ofir, Oded Aharonson

We apply AnalyticLC, an analytic model described in an accompanying paper, to interpret Kepler data of systems that contain two or three transiting planets. We perform tests to ver…

An Accurate 3D Analytic Model for Exoplanetary Photometry, Radial Velocity, and Astrometry

Yair Judkovsky, Aviv Ofir, Oded Aharonson

We developed and provide AnalyticLC, a novel analytic method and code implementation for dynamical modeling of planetary systems, including non-coplanar interactions, based on a di…
