Presentations shows as part of the Summer School "Exoplanets and astrostatistical analysis techniques", Sep 12 – 16, 2022, Geneva Observatory: https://indico.cern.ch/event/1136851/
The school will provide a state-of-the-art picture of the astrostatistical data analysis techniques in the field of exoplanet research. It will cover various modern techniques that are currently used to detect and characterize extrasolar planets, including the spectroscopic radial velocity method, the photometric transit method, the astrometric orbit detection method. The astrometric method will become particularly relevant with the upcoming data releases of the Gaia space mission. The school will introduce the students to the relevant astrostatistical background given the particular noise properties of astrophysical datasets, as well as give them hands-on experience with real and synthetic datasets. Participants will learn the limitations of each method and the biases it introduces in the derived sample of exoplanets. The students will have the opportunity to discuss all of these topics with world experts in the field.
