A Full Implementation of Spectro-Perfectionism for Precise Radial Velocity Exoplanet Detection: A Test Case With the MINERVA Reduction Pipeline

Matthew A. Cornachione, Adam S. Bolton, Jason D. Eastman +10

We present a computationally tractable implementation of spectro-perfectionism, a method which minimizes error imparted by spectral extraction. We develop our method in conjunction…

First radial velocity results from the MINiature Exoplanet Radial Velocity Array (MINERVA)

Maurice L. Wilson, Jason D. Eastman, Matthew A. Cornachione +52

The MINiature Exoplanet Radial Velocity Array (MINERVA) is a dedicated observatory of four 0.7m robotic telescopes fiber-fed to a KiwiSpec spectrograph. The MINERVA mission is to d…

The Scientific Context of WFIRST Microlensing in the 2020s

Jennifer Yee, Rachel Akeson, Jay Anderson +23

[abridged] WFIRST is uniquely capable of finding planets with masses as small as Mars at separations comparable to Jupiter, i.e., beyond the current ice lines of their stars. These…

Wide-Orbit Exoplanet Demographics

David P. Bennett, Rachel Akeson, Yann Alibert +41

The Kepler, K2 and TESS transit surveys are revolutionizing our understanding of planets orbiting close to their host stars and our understanding of exoplanet systems in general, b…

Masses and Distances of Planetary Microlens Systems with High Angular Resolution Imaging

Aparna Bhattacharya, Rachel Akeson, Jay Anderson +33

Microlensing is the only method that can detect and measure mass of wide orbit, low mass, solar system analog exoplanets. Mass measurements of such planets would yield massive scie…
