nuance

Efficient detection of planets transiting quiet or active stars

nuance uses linear models and Gaussian processes (using the JAX-based tinygp) to simultaneously search for planetary transits while modeling correlated noises (e.g. stellar variability) in a tractable way. See the paper for more details.

When to use nuance? - To detect single or periodic transits - When correlated noises are present in the data (e.g. stellar variability or instrumental systematics) - For space-based or sparse ground-based observations - To effectively find transits in light curves from multiple instruments - To use GPUs for fast transit searches

Documentation at nuance.readthedocs.io

Example

```python import numpy as np from nuance import linearsearch, periodicsearch, core

linear search

epochs = time.copy() durations = np.linspace(0.01, 0.2, 15) ls = linear_search(time, flux, gp=gp)(epochs, durations)

periodic search

periods = np.linspace(0.3, 5, 2000) snrfunction = jax.jit(core.snr(time, flux, gp=gp)) psfunction = periodicsearch(epochs, durations, ls, snrfunction) snr, params = ps_function(periods)

t0, D, P = params[np.argmax(snr)] ```

Installation

nuance is written for python 3 and can be installed using pip
