Combining Photometry From Kepler and TESS to Improve Short-Period Exoplanet Characterization
Ben Placek, Kevin H. Knuth, Daniel Angerhausen
Planets emit thermal radiation and reflect incident light that they recieve from their host stars. As a planet orbits it's host star the photometric variations associated with thes…
Characterization of Kepler-91b and the Investigation of a Potential Trojan Companion Using EXONEST
Ben Placek, Kevin H. Knuth, Daniel Angerhausen +1
Presented here is an independent re-analysis of the Kepler light curve of Kepler-91 (KIC 8219268). Using the EXONEST software package, which provides both Bayesian parameter estima…
A statistical search for a population of Exo-Trojans in the Kepler dataset
Michael Hippke, Daniel Angerhausen
Trojans are small bodies in planetary Lagrangian points. In our solar system, Jupiter has the largest number of such companions. Their existence is assumed for exoplanetary systems…
First exoplanet transit observation with the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy: Confirmation of Rayleigh scattering in HD 189733 b with HIPO
Daniel Angerhausen, Georgi Mandushev, Avi Mandell +13
Here we report on the first successful exoplanet transit observation with the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). We observed a single transit of the hot Jupi…
Photometry's bright future: Detecting Solar System analogues with future space telescopes
Michael Hippke, Daniel Angerhausen
Time-series transit photometry from the Kepler space telescope has allowed for the discovery of thousands of exoplanets. We explore the potential of yet improved future missions su…
Characterizing Transiting Planet Atmospheres through 2025
N. B. Cowan, T. Greene, D. Angerhausen +13
[Abridged] We have only been able to comprehensively characterize the atmospheres of a handful of transiting planets, because most orbit faint stars. TESS will discover transiting…
