vetting
contains simple, stand-alone Python tools for vetting transiting signals in NASA's Kepler, K2 and TESS data. vetting
requires an installation of Python 3.8 or higher.
You can install vetting
by executing the following in a terminal
pip install vetting
An example of a simple test is shown below.
Here a significant offset is detected in the centroid of false positive KOI-608 during transit. The p-value for the points during transit being drawn from the same distribution as the points out of transit is low, (there is a less than 1% chance these are drawn from the same distribution). To recreate this example you can use the following script:
import lightkurve as lk
from vetting import centroid_test
tpf = lk.search_targetpixelfile('KOI-608', mission='Kepler', quarter=10).download()
period, t0, dur = 25.3368592, 192.91552, 8.85/24
r = centroid_test(tpf, period, t0, dur, aperture_mask='pipeline', plot=False)
