Criteria for Sample Selection to Maximize Planet Sensitivity and Yield from Space-based Microlens Parallax Surveys
Space-based microlens parallax measurements are a powerful tool for understanding planet populations, especially their distribution throughout the Galaxy. However, if space-based observations of the microlensing events must be specifically targeted, it is crucial that microlensing events enter the parallax sample without reference to the known presence or absence of planets. Hence, it is vital ...
متن کاملSimulations for Multi-Object Spectrograph Planet Surveys
Radial velocity surveys for extra-solar planets generally require substantial amounts of large telescope time in order to monitor a sufficient number of stars. Two of the aspects which can limit such surveys are the single-object capabilities of the spectrograph, and an inefficient observing strategy for a given observing window. In addition, the detection rate of extra-solar planets using the ...
متن کاملThe LAOG‐Planet Imaging Surveys
With the development of high-contrast imaging techniques and infrared detectors, vast efforts have been devoted during the past decade to detect and characterize lighter, cooler and closer companions to nearby stars, and ultimately image new planetary systems. Complementary to other observing techniques (radial velocity (RV), transit, micro-lensing, pulsar-timing), this approach has opened a ne...
متن کاملThe Planet Simulator: Green planet and desert world
An application of the Planet Simulator is presented to estimate the maximum effect of vegetation on the Earth’s climate. Four sets of sensitivity experiments are performed: (1) All vegetation related land surface parameters are changed simultaneously. (2) Only one effect of vegetation on climate is considered: albedo, surface roughness and soil hydrology. To identify the nature of vegetation-cl...
متن کاملEfficient analysis in planet transit surveys
With the growing number of projects dedicated to the search for extrasolar planets via transits, there is a need to develop fast, automatic, robust methods with a statistical background in order to efficiently do the analysis. We propose a modified analysis of variance (AoV) test particularly suitable for the detection of planetary transits in stellar light curves. We show how savings of labor ...
