- This $1,076,775 federal grant award to President and Fellows of Harvard College, also known as Harvard University, funds research to enhance the accuracy and precision of planetary parameters derived from transit photometry data. The research leverages the ExoFastV2 global modeling approach to simultaneously constrain planet eccentricity without the need for radial velocity measurements, addressing biases in prior methods that assumed circular orbits. This work is expected to improve fundamental...
- This $448,985 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to President and Fellows of Harvard College (Harvard University) to conduct research on the atmospheric volatile transport and habitability of rocky exoplanets orbiting M-class red dwarf stars. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, is part of NASA's broader efforts to understand the climate and potential for life on exoplanets. The research will involve using a 3D general circulation...
