Empirically Interrelating Stellar Chromospheric Activity, Photometric Variability, and Radial Velocity Variations to Enhance Planet Discovery
Because most extrasolar planets are detected indirectly via their influence on their host star, processes occurring on the surfaces of these stars are a significant impediment to planet detection: photometric noise and radial velocity noise can wash out or even mimic the signatures of extrasolar pla...
