On planetary systems as ordered sequences

Emily Sandford, David Kipping, Michael Collins

A planetary system consists of a host star and one or more planets, arranged into a particular configuration. Here, we consider what information belongs to the configuration, or or…

Estimation of singly-transiting K2 planet periods with Gaia parallaxes

Emily Sandford, Néstor Espinoza, Rafael Brahm +1

When a planet is only observed to transit once, direct measurement of its period is impossible. It is possible, however, to constrain the periods of single transiters, and this is…

The multiplicity distribution of Kepler's exoplanets

Emily Sandford, David Kipping, Michael Collins

The true multiplicity distribution of transiting planet systems is obscured by strong observational biases, leading low-multiplicity systems to be overrepresented in the observed s…

Shadow Imaging of Transiting Objects

Emily Sandford, David Kipping

We consider the problem of inferring the shape of a transiting object's silhouette from its light curve alone, without assuming a physical model for the object. We model the object…

Two Thousand Kepler Phase Curves from Phasma

David Kipping, Emily Sandford, Tiffany Jansen

An exoplanet's optical phase curve constrains the thermal emission and albedo of the planet's surface and/or atmosphere, as well as potentially constraining the mass via gravitatio…

Higher Order Harmonics in the Light Curves of Eccentric Planetary Systems

Zephyr Penoyre, Emily Sandford

As a planet orbits, it causes periodic modulations in the light curve of its host star. Due to the combined effects of the planet raising tides on the host star, relativistic beami…
