Scalable Gaussian Processes for Integrated and Overlapping Measurements Via Augmented State Space Models
Ryan A. Rubenzahl, Soichiro Hattori, Simo Särkkä +4
Astronomical measurements are often integrated over finite exposures, which can obscure latent variability on comparable timescales. Correctly accounting for exposure integration w…
Exposure-averaged Gaussian Processes for Combining Overlapping Datasets
Jacob K. Luhn, Ryan A. Rubenzahl, Samuel Halverson +1
Physically motivated Gaussian process (GP) kernels for stellar variability, like the commonly used damped, driven simple harmonic oscillators that model stellar granulation and p-m…
RVTESS I: Modeling Asteroseismic Signals with Simultaneous Photometry and RVs
Jiaxin Tang, Sharon X. Wang, Yaguang Li +22
Detecting small planets via the radial velocity method remains challenged by signals induced by stellar variability, versus the effects of the planet(s). Here, we explore using Gau…
Discovery of a Nearby Habitable Zone Super-Earth Candidate Amenable to Direct Imaging
Corey Beard, Paul Robertson, Jack Lubin +31
We present the discovery of GJ 251 c, a candidate super-Earth orbiting in the Habitable Zone (HZ) of its M dwarf host star. Using high-precision Habitable-zone Planet Finder (HPF)…
The NEID Earth Twin Survey. III. Survey Performance After Three Years on Sky
Arvind F. Gupta, Evan Fitzmaurice, Suvrath Mahadevan +22
The NEID Earth Twin Survey (NETS) has been delivering a rich set of precise radial velocity (RV) measurements for 41 bright, nearby main sequence stars. Here, we describe the statu…
An Earth-Sized Planet in a 5.4h Orbit Around a Nearby K dwarf
Kaya Han TaÅ, Gudmundur Stefansson, Syarief N. M. Fariz +25
We present the discovery and confirmation of the ultra-short period (USP) planet TOI-2431 b orbiting a nearby ( pc) late K star ( = $4109 \pm 28 \, {\rm…
