On The Detection Of Exoplanets Via Radial Velocity Doppler Spectroscopy, Joseph P. Glaser
On The Detection Of Exoplanets Via Radial Velocity Doppler Spectroscopy, Joseph P. Glaser
The Downtown Review
Since the discovery of the first exoplanet occurred in the late 1980s, physicists and astronomers have confirmed the existence of over 1783 planets orbiting other stars. Over the years, several methods have been developed for detecting these celestial systems, but none has thus far been more successful than the use of Radial Velocity Doppler Spectroscopy. As such, this paper attempts to break down the barriers placed before new entries into the field by detailing the theoretical premise and experimental process of this most successful technique. The content enclosed is geared for the senior undergraduate student with some knowledge of vector-based …
