Exoplanet transit search at the detection limit: detection and false alarm vetting pipeline
Jakob Robnik, Uroš Seljak, Jon M. Jenkins +1
One of the primary mission goals of the Kepler space telescope was to detect Earth-like terrestrial planets in the habitable zone around Sun-like stars. These planets are at the de…
Are We There Yet? Challenges in Quantifying the Frequency of Earth Analogs in the Habitable Zone
Rachel B. Fernandes, Samson Johnson, Galen J. Bergsten +43
Searching for life elsewhere in the universe is one of the most highly prioritized pursuits in astronomy today. However, the ability to observe evidence of Earth-like life through…
Why Estimating is Difficult: A Kepler-Centric Perspective
Steve Bryson, Michelle Kunimoto, Ruslan Belikov +13
, the occurrence rate of rocky habitable zone exoplanets orbiting Sun-like stars, is of great interest to both the astronomical community and the general public. The Ke…
Paths to Robust Exoplanet Science Yield Margin for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Christopher C. Stark, Bertrand Mennesson, Steve Bryson +11
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will seek to detect and characterize potentially Earth-like planets around other stars. To ensure that the mission achieves the Astro2020 Dec…
Fourier analysis of non-Blazhko ab-type RR Lyrae stars observed with the Kepler space telescope
J. M. Nemec, R. Smolec, J. M. Benko +22
Nineteen of the ~40 RR Lyr stars in the Kepler field have been identified as candidate non-Blazhko (or unmodulated) stars. In this paper we present the results of Fourier decomposi…
Variable turbulent convection as the cause of the Blazhko effect - testing the Stothers model
R. Smolec, P. Moskalik, K. Kolenberg +3
The amplitude and phase modulation observed in a significant fraction of the RR Lyrae variables - the Blazhko effect - represents a long-standing enigma in stellar pulsation theory…
