Revisiting Kepler Transiting Systems: Unvetting Planets and Constraining Relationships among Harmonics in Phase Curves

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Prajwal Niraula, Avi Shporer, Ian Wong, Julien de Wit, | Summary: Space-based photometric missions widely use statistical validation tools for vetting transiting planetary candidates, particularly when other traditional methods of planet confirmation are unviable. In this paper, we refute the planetary nature of three previously validated planets […]

Removing systematics-induced 21-cm foreground residuals by cross-correlating filtered data

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi Masui | First 5 Authors: Haochen Wang, Juan Mena-Parra, Tianyue Chen, Kiyoshi Masui, | Summary: Observations of the redshifted 21-cm signal emitted by neutral hydrogen represent a promising probe of large-scale structure in the universe. However, cosmological 21-cm signal is challenging to observe due to astrophysical foregrounds which are several orders of […]
