Automatic search for transiting planets in TESS-SPOC FFIs with RAVEN: over 100 newly validated planets and over 2000 vetted candidates
M. Lafarga, D. J. Armstrong, K. Cui +7
Space-based missions such as TESS are identifying a wealth of short-period ( d) transiting planets. Despite the growing number of confirmed and candidate planets, the s…
Demographics of Close-In TESS Exoplanets Orbiting FGK Main-sequence Stars
Kaiming Cui, David J. Armstrong, Andreas Hadjigeorghiou +5
Understanding the demographics of close-in planets is crucial for insights into exoplanet formation and evolution. We present a detailed analysis of occurrence rates for close-in (…
RAVEN: RAnking and Validation of ExoplaNets
Andreas Hadjigeorghiou, David J. Armstrong, Kaiming Cui +5
We present RAVEN, a newly developed vetting and validation pipeline for TESS exoplanet candidates. The pipeline employs a Bayesian framework to derive the posterior probability of…
The NCORES Program: Precise planetary masses, null results, and insight into the planet mass distribution near the radius gap
David J. Armstrong, Ares Osborn, Remo Burn +39
NCORES was a large observing program on the ESO HARPS spectrograph, dedicated to measuring the masses of Neptune-like and smaller transiting planets discovered by the TESS satellit…
