• A Revised Exoplanet Yield from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) (2018, methodology): “The primary goal of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), a mission led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is to find small planets that are most amenable for mass measurements through precise radial velocity (RV) observations (Ricker et al. 2015, 2016; Collins et al. 2018).”
• Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA): Time-dependent Convection, Energy Conservation, Automatic Differentiation, and Infrastructure (2022, background): “The TESS mission (Ricker et al. 2016) is providing systematic measurements of the radii, masses, and ages of 200,000 individual stars sampled at a 2 minute cadence to open a new era of stellar variability exploration (e.g., Huang et al. 2018; Ball et al. 2018; Dragomir et al. 2019; Wang et al.…”
• CARMENES instrument overview (2014, methodology): “After completion of the primary CARMENES survey anticipated for the end of 2018, the instrument will be positioned well to provide powerful follow-up capabilities for space-borne transit missions such as TESS (Ricker et al. 2014) and PLATO (Rauer et al. 2014).”
• Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA): Pulsating Variable Stars, Rotation, Convective Boundaries, and Energy Conservation (2019, background): “These different outcomes are potentially testable by the TESS mission (Ricker et al. 2016), which will observe many massive stars, some with the long time baselines necessary to detect g-modes with multi-day periods.”
