Exoplanet Watch

Exoplanet Watch Results

Citizen Initiated Transit Information Survey Enabling NASA Science (CITISENS) is a fully-automated pipeline built upon the DAWGIE pipeline framework. It regularly scrapes the AAVSO Exoplanet Database, ingests any new or updated data, fits each transit timeseries with a model lightcurve, and then calculates new ephemerides and orbital periods for every target submitted to the Exoplanet Watch project. CITISENS runs weekly in early AM hours PST, and data is published the same day. Priors listed in the below table are collected from the NASA Exoplanet Archive. Feedback, concerns or bug reports? Please email exoplanetwatch@jpl.nasa.gov.
