Oversampling Target Management Criteria for Astronomical Research - CSC 05/04/2006

This document outlines the initial criteria for target management in oversampling efforts, detailing 1000 potential oversampling candidates. For the AP-side, targets will be determined by the APWG, while the ExoSide includes stars known to host planets based on ground-based observations. Prioritization will be given to candidates with higher detection confidence, particularly those detected by multiple methods. The Scientific Oversampling Staff (SOS) ensures scientific consistency and adjusts priorities as needed, highlighting the importance of periodic candidates over single events in the selection process.

  1. OverSampling Mode Criteria for list of target management CSC 05/04/2006

  2. Initial List of targets • 1000 possibilities for oversampling • Initial list of targets : • For the AP-side: TBD by the APWG • For the ExoSide • Stars known to host a planet from ground based observations • Stars selected as references over the HR diagram  “calibration” of the stellar variability (for improving detection in the LCs). • Priority is left progressively to targets of the OSM CSC – 05/04/2006

  3. Few principles to make criteria • For a given method candidates are sorted following confidence level in the detection • Periodic candidates globally have higher confidence level than single events • Periodic events detected by 2 methods are more secure detections than by a single one • Eclipsing Binaries do not have the same interest as Planetary candidates (second order interest …). CSC – 05/04/2006

  4. Proposed priorities - P1: candidates common to BLS and MID+EPF (periodic events detected by the 2 methods) - P2: candidates obtained with BLS only (periodic event detected by the standard method) - P3: candidates obtained with only MID+EPF (low periodicity – weak transit number) - P4: candidates obtained with only MID (single transit feature) - P5: confirmed Eclipsing Binaries CSC – 05/04/2006

  5. Role of the SOS The role of the Scientific Oversampling Staff (SOS) is: • To check the scientific consistency of the list of targets to be oversampled • To change some of the priorities issued from the software • To attribute the highest priority P0 to some peculiar events CSC – 05/04/2006
