Combining Transit and RV: A Synthesized Population Model
Michelle Kunimoto, Steve Bryson
We present a framework for estimating exoplanet occurrence rates by synthesizing constraints from radial velocity and transit surveys simultaneously. We employ approximate Bayesian…
The Occurrence of Rocky Habitable Zone Planets Around Solar-Like Stars from Kepler Data
Steve Bryson, Michelle Kunimoto, Ravi K. Kopparapu +79
We present occurrence rates for rocky planets in the habitable zones (HZ) of main-sequence dwarf stars based on the Kepler DR25 planet candidate catalog and Gaia-based stellar prop…
Measuring Transit Signal Recovery in the Kepler Pipeline IV: Completeness of the DR25 Planet Candidate catalog
Jessie L. Christiansen, Bruce D. Clarke, Christopher J. Burke +12
In this work we empirically measure the detection efficiency of Kepler pipeline used to create the final Kepler Threshold Crossing Event (TCE; Twicken et al. 2016) and planet candi…
Reliability Correction is Key for Robust Kepler Occurrence Rates
Steve Bryson, Jeffrey L. Coughlin, Michelle Kunimoto +1
The Kepler DR25 planet candidate catalog was produced using an automated method of planet candidate identification based on various tests. These tests were tuned to obtain a reason…
Comparing Approximate Bayesian Computation with the Poisson-Likelihood Method for Exoplanet Occurrence Rates
Michelle Kunimoto, Steve Bryson
We present Kepler exoplanet occurrence rates inferred with approximate Bayesian computation (ABC). By using the same planet catalogue, stellar sample, and characterization of compl…
Transit least-squares survey -- III. A transit candidate in the habitable zone of Kepler-160 and a nontransiting planet characterized by transit-timing variations
René Heller, Michael Hippke, Jantje Freudenthal +3
The Sun-like star Kepler-160 (KOI-456) has been known to host two transiting planets, Kepler-160 b and c, of which planet c shows substantial transit-timing variations (TTVs). We u…
