Pandora: A fast open-source exomoon transit detection algorithm
Michael Hippke, René Heller
We present Pandora, a new software to model, detect, and characterize transits of extrasolar planets with moons in stellar photometric time series. Pandora uses an analytical descr…
Signal preservation of exomoon transits during light curve folding
René Heller, Michael Hippke
In the search for moons around extrasolar planets, astronomers are confronted with a stunning observation. Although 3400 of the 4500 exoplanets were discovered with the transit met…
Interstellar communication network. III. Locating deep space nodes
Michael Hippke
An interstellar communication network benefits from relay nodes placed in the gravitational lenses of stars. The signal gains are of order with optimal alignment, allowing…
Searching for interstellar quantum communications
Michael Hippke
The modern search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) began with the seminal publications of Cocconi & Morrison (1959) and Schwartz & Townes (1961), who proposed to search for…
Searching for a message in the angular power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background
Michael Hippke
The Creator of the universe could place a message on the most cosmic of all billboards, the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) sky. It was proposed by Hsu & Zee (2006) to to search…
Interstellar communication network. II. Deep space nodes with gravitational lensing
Michael Hippke
Data rates in an interstellar communication network suffer from the inverse square law due to the vast distances between the stars. To achieve high (Gbits/s) data rates, some combi…
