Thus the starlight would still be easily visible, making planet detection impossible.
The possibility that this could be the first known extrasolar planetary system, not just a solitary planet detection, has generated excitement.
For planet detection, the telescopes would operate in an imaging mode.
However the classification is made difficult in that of the methods of extrasolar planet detection, many methods leave ESI parameters unquantified.
The loss of photo-detector chain number 1 results in the loss of one CCD dedicated to asteroseismology and one CCD dedicated to planet detection.
All four were found using the radial velocity method of extrasolar planet detection.
The purpose of this instrument was extrasolar planet detection by the radial velocity method.
The main catalogue comprises databases of all of the currently confirmed extrasolar planets as well as a database of unconfirmed planet detections.
Performing astrometric measurements of nearby stars, extrasolar planet detection, extrasolar planet imaging, and atmospheric spectroscopy.
The claims for this planet thus fall into a long history of claimed astrometric extrasolar planet detections that were subsequently refuted.
