    eleanor: An open-source tool for extracting light curves from the TESS Full-Frame Images

    Get PDF
    During its two year prime mission the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) will perform a time-series photometric survey covering over 80% of the sky. This survey comprises observations of 26 24 x 96 degree sectors that are each monitored continuously for approximately 27 days. The main goal of TESS is to find transiting planets around 200,000 pre-selected stars for which fixed aperture photometry is recorded every two minutes. However, TESS is also recording and delivering Full-Frame Images (FFIs) of each detector at a 30 minute cadence. We have created an open-source tool, eleanor, to produce light curves for objects in the TESS FFIs. Here, we describe the methods used in eleanor to produce light curves that are optimized for planet searches. The tool performs background subtraction, aperture and PSF photometry, decorrelation of instrument systematics, and cotrending using principal component analysis. We recover known transiting exoplanets in the FFIs to validate the pipeline and perform a limited search for new planet candidates in Sector 1. Our tests indicate that eleanor produces light curves with significantly less scatter than other tools that have been used in the literature. Cadence-stacked images, and raw and detrended eleanor light curves for each analyzed star will be hosted on MAST, with planet candidates on ExoFOP-TESS as Community TESS Objects of Interest (CTOIs). This work confirms the promise that the TESS FFIs will enable the detection of thousands of new exoplanets and a broad range of time domain astrophysics.Comment: 21 pages, 13 figures, 2 tables, Accepted to PAS

    2008 Community Foundation Global Status Report

    Get PDF
    Between 2000 and 2008, first the Council on Foundations (the first "home" to the WINGS Secretariat) and then WINGS itself published a series of reports on the growth and vitality of community foundations around the globe. In each case the lead researcher and author was Eleanor W. Sacks, who in turn was supported in her work by a global advisory group and WINGS Secretariat staff. We are grateful to Eleanor and the participants in the WINGS-Community Foundation network who helped to shape and inform the first decade of the report's life. Available to download: full summary report for 2008, including brief country status reports

    A Cypriot Story about Love and Hatred

    Get PDF
    The Middle Ages have their great love stories. We owe one of them to Peter I Lusignan, King of Cyprus. Married to Eleanor of Aragon, who bore him a son and a successor, he had a mistress pregnant with his child. The queen decided to eliminate this rival by inducing a premature delivery. The incident was recorded by Leontios Makhairas, a Cypriot chronicler, who described the cruelty of Eleanor and mourned the fate of the baby. But it is not his account which keeps this tragedy alive in Cyprus even today. There is a folk song about beautiful Arodaphnousa, who suffered because of the bad queen. The song is deprived of historical context, but it is a historical source nevertheless. Its remote counterpart is the Catalan story of Eleanor, who was expelled from Cyprus and lived in Aragon for a long time. This story creates an image of a benign, calm lady who was venerated after death by her subjects. The clash between these images makes one think about the black and white PR created in every epoch. But this is not the point of this story. The point is the fate of an innocent child, both the flower and the victim of love. This is a rare motif in medieval literature; children are seldom present on the pages of its manuscripts. The emotion connected with this story deserves the reader’s attention

    open32Regorafenib demonstrated efficacy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Lack of predictive biomarkers, potential toxicities and cost-effectiveness concerns highlight the unmet need for better patient selection.openKhan, Khurum; Rata, Mihaela; Cunningham, David; Koh, Dow-Mu; Tunariu, Nina; Hahne, Jens C; Vlachogiannis, George; Hedayat, Somaieh; Marchetti, Silvia; Lampis, Andrea; Damavandi, Mahnaz Darvish; Lote, Hazel; Rana, Isma; Williams, Anja; Eccles, Suzanne A; Fontana, Elisa; Collins, David; Eltahir, Zakaria; Rao, Sheela; Watkins, David; Starling, Naureen; Thomas, Jan; Kalaitzaki, Eleftheria; Fotiadis, Nicos; Begum, Ruwaida; Bali, Maria; Rugge, Massimo; Temple, Eleanor; Fassan, Matteo; Chau, Ian; Braconi, Chiara; Valeri, NicolaKhan, Khurum; Rata, Mihaela; Cunningham, David; Koh, Dow-Mu; Tunariu, Nina; Hahne, Jens C; Vlachogiannis, George; Hedayat, Somaieh; Marchetti, Silvia; Lampis, Andrea; Damavandi, Mahnaz Darvish; Lote, Hazel; Rana, Isma; Williams, Anja; Eccles, Suzanne A; Fontana, Elisa; Collins, David; Eltahir, Zakaria; Rao, Sheela; Watkins, David; Starling, Naureen; Thomas, Jan; Kalaitzaki, Eleftheria; Fotiadis, Nicos; Begum, Ruwaida; Bali, Maria; Rugge, Massimo; Temple, Eleanor; Fassan, Matteo; Chau, Ian; Braconi, Chiara; Valeri, Nicol

    Two Conflicting Worlds: Youngs’ Biography of Eleanor Roosevelt

    Get PDF
    This paper offers a review of J. WIlliam T. Youngs biography of Eleanor Roosevelt, Eleanor Roosevelt: A Personal and Public Life. Youngs\u27 biography covered Eleanor Roosevelt throughout her life: from her upbringing in NYC, her actions as first Lady of the United States, as well as Eleanor\u27s work as a United Nations Delegate after FDR\u27s passing. The review establishes how Youngs portrayed Eleanor Roosevelt\u27s life as opposing spheres, the personal and the public. The paper describes Youngs\u27 structure; the use of primary sources, imagery, and personal stories; and weaknesses in Youngs\u27 scholarship in order to provide a comprehensive review
