The past two decades have seen a major expansion in the availability, size, and precision of
time-domain data sets in astronomy. Owing to their unique combination of flexibility …

Thousands of exoplanets have now been discovered with a huge range of masses, sizes
and orbits: from rocky Earth-like planets to large gas giants grazing the surface of their host …

This paper discusses the transit model-fitting and multiple-planet search algorithms and
performance of the Kepler Science Data Processing Pipeline, developed by the Kepler …

Abstract The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has a goal of detecting small
planets orbiting stars bright enough for mass determination via ground-based radial velocity …

We investigate a new class of habitable planets composed of water-rich interiors with
massive oceans underlying H 2-rich atmospheres, referred to here as Hycean worlds. With …

The masses and radii of exoplanets are fundamental quantities needed for their
characterisation. Studying the different populations of exoplanets is important for …

The detection of transiting exoplanets in time-series photometry requires the removal or
modeling of instrumental and stellar noise. While instrumental systematics can be reduced …

We present calculations of the occurrence rate of small close-in planets around low-mass
dwarf stars using the known planet populations from the Kepler and K2 missions. Applying …

We report the discovery and characterization of a pair of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright K-
dwarf TOI-1064 (TIC 79748331), initially detected in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey …

Abstract Since 2014, NASA's K2 mission has observed large portions of the ecliptic plane in
search of transiting planets and has detected hundreds of planet candidates. With …
