1st PlanetS workshop on Bayesian Statistics
Thank you! The organisers would like to thank the speakers and all participants of the workshop for a very fruitful meeting. See you again soon for the second workshop in the series. The video recording of the talks can be found here. You can skip between talks using the bookmarks on the left hand menu. ===== Data analysis is a central part of the scientific method. The discovery and characterisation of exoplanets requires sophisticated statistical methods, to extract weak planetary signals…

Workshop on Exoplanet Densities: Observations and Modeling
Dear ALL, We remind you of the 1-day NCCR PlanetS workshop in Bern on “Exoplanet densities: Observations and modeling” which will be on May 3 (Wednesday) this year. Your doodle entries helped us to fixing May 3. Now, for a definite registration, please check your doodle-entry and edit/add if necessary: http://doodle.com/poll/vksby8fhihss2gts Abstract: Combining photometric transits with radial velocity measurements yields planetary radius, mass and thus bulk density. The possible range of interior structures that can be modelled from mass and radius is…
