In this tutorial, we will combine many of the previous tutorials to perform a fit of the K2-24 system using the K2 transit data and the RVs from Petigura et al. (2016).
This is the same system that we fit in {ref}rv
and we'll combine that model with the transit model from {ref}transit
and the Gaussian Process noise model from {ref}stellar-variability
.
To get started, let's download the relevant datasets. First, the transit light curve from Everest:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from astropy.io import fits
from scipy.signal import savgol_filter
# Download the data
lc_url = "https://archive.stsci.edu/hlsps/everest/v2/c02/203700000/71098/hlsp_everest_k2_llc_203771098-c02_kepler_v2.0_lc.fits"
with fits.open(lc_url) as hdus:
lc = hdus[1].data
lc_hdr = hdus[1].header
# Work out the exposure time
texp = lc_hdr["FRAMETIM"] * lc_hdr["NUM_FRM"]
texp /= 60.0 * 60.0 * 24.0
# Mask bad data
m = (
(np.arange(len(lc)) > 100)
& np.isfinite(lc["FLUX"])
& np.isfinite(lc["TIME"])
)
bad_bits = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17]
qual = lc["QUALITY"]
for b in bad_bits:
m &= qual & 2 ** (b - 1) == 0
# Convert to parts per thousand
x = lc["TIME"][m]
y = lc["FLUX"][m]
mu = np.median(y)
y = (y / mu - 1) * 1e3
# Identify outliers
m = np.ones(len(y), dtype=bool)
for i in range(10):
y_prime = np.interp(x, x[m], y[m])
smooth = savgol_filter(y_prime, 101, polyorder=3)
resid = y - smooth
sigma = np.sqrt(np.mean(resid**2))
m0 = np.abs(resid) < 3 * sigma
if m.sum() == m0.sum():
m = m0
break
m = m0
# Only discard positive outliers
m = resid < 3 * sigma
# Shift the data so that the K2 data start at t=0. This tends to make the fit
# better behaved since t0 covaries with period.
x_ref = np.min(x[m])
x -= x_ref
# Plot the data
plt.plot(x, y, "k", label="data")
plt.plot(x, smooth)
plt.plot(x[~m], y[~m], "xr", label="outliers")
plt.legend(fontsize=12)
plt.xlim(x.min(), x.max())
plt.xlabel("time")
plt.ylabel("flux")
# Make sure that the data type is consistent
x = np.ascontiguousarray(x[m], dtype=np.float64)
y = np.ascontiguousarray(y[m], dtype=np.float64)
smooth = np.ascontiguousarray(smooth[m], dtype=np.float64)
Then the RVs from RadVel:
import pandas as pd
url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/California-Planet-Search/radvel/master/example_data/epic203771098.csv"
data = pd.read_csv(url, index_col=0)
# Don't forget to remove the time offset from above!
x_rv = np.array(data.t) - x_ref
y_rv = np.array(data.vel)
yerr_rv = np.array(data.errvel)
plt.errorbar(x_rv, y_rv, yerr=yerr_rv, fmt=".k")
plt.xlabel("time [days]")
_ = plt.ylabel("radial velocity [m/s]")
We can initialize the transit parameters using the box least squares periodogram from AstroPy. (Note: you'll need AstroPy v3.1 or more recent to use this feature.) A full discussion of transit detection and vetting is beyond the scope of this tutorial so let's assume that we know that there are two periodic transiting planets in this dataset.
from astropy.timeseries import BoxLeastSquares
m = np.zeros(len(x), dtype=bool)
period_grid = np.exp(np.linspace(np.log(5), np.log(50), 50000))
bls_results = []
periods = []
t0s = []
depths = []
# Compute the periodogram for each planet by iteratively masking out
# transits from the higher signal to noise planets. Here we're assuming
# that we know that there are exactly two planets.
for i in range(2):
bls = BoxLeastSquares(x[~m], y[~m] - smooth[~m])
bls_power = bls.power(period_grid, 0.1, oversample=20)
bls_results.append(bls_power)
# Save the highest peak as the planet candidate
index = np.argmax(bls_power.power)
periods.append(bls_power.period[index])
t0s.append(bls_power.transit_time[index])
depths.append(bls_power.depth[index])
# Mask the data points that are in transit for this candidate
m |= bls.transit_mask(x, periods[-1], 0.5, t0s[-1])
Let's plot the initial transit estimates based on these periodograms:
fig, axes = plt.subplots(len(bls_results), 2, figsize=(15, 10))
for i in range(len(bls_results)):
# Plot the periodogram
ax = axes[i, 0]
ax.axvline(np.log10(periods[i]), color="C1", lw=5, alpha=0.8)
ax.plot(np.log10(bls_results[i].period), bls_results[i].power, "k")
ax.annotate(
"period = {0:.4f} d".format(periods[i]),
(0, 1),
xycoords="axes fraction",
xytext=(5, -5),
textcoords="offset points",
va="top",

fontsize=12,
)
ax.set_ylabel("bls power")
ax.set_yticks([])
ax.set_xlim(np.log10(period_grid.min()), np.log10(period_grid.max()))
if i < len(bls_results) - 1:
ax.set_xticklabels([])
else:
ax.set_xlabel("log10(period)")
# Plot the folded transit
ax = axes[i, 1]
p = periods[i]
x_fold = (x - t0s[i] + 0.5 * p) % p - 0.5 * p
m = np.abs(x_fold) < 0.4
ax.plot(x_fold[m], y[m] - smooth[m], ".k")
# Overplot the phase binned light curve
bins = np.linspace(-0.41, 0.41, 32)
denom, _ = np.histogram(x_fold, bins)
num, _ = np.histogram(x_fold, bins, weights=y - smooth)
denom[num == 0] = 1.0
ax.plot(0.5 * (bins[1:] + bins[:-1]), num / denom, color="C1")
ax.set_xlim(-0.4, 0.4)
ax.set_ylabel("relative flux [ppt]")
if i < len(bls_results) - 1:
ax.set_xticklabels([])
else:
ax.set_xlabel("time since transit")
_ = fig.subplots_adjust(hspace=0.02)
The discovery paper for K2-24 (Petigura et al. (2016)) includes the following estimates of the stellar mass and radius in Solar units:
M_star_petigura = 1.12, 0.05
R_star_petigura = 1.21, 0.11
Finally, using this stellar mass, we can also estimate the minimum masses of the planets given these transit parameters.
import exoplanet as xo
import astropy.units as u
msini = xo.estimate_minimum_mass(
periods, x_rv, y_rv, yerr_rv, t0s=t0s, m_star=M_star_petigura[0]
)
msini = msini.to(u.M_earth)
print(msini)
Now, let's define our full model in PyMC3. There's a lot going on here, but I've tried to comment it and most of it should be familiar from the other tutorials and case studies. In this case, I've put the model inside a model "factory" function because we'll do some sigma clipping below.

Now let's plot the map radial velocity model.
def plot_rv_curve(soln):

ax.errorbar(x_rv, y_rv, yerr=yerr_rv, fmt=".k")

ax.axhline(0, color="k", lw=1)
ax.set_ylabel("residuals [m/s]")
ax.set_xlim(t_rv.min(), t_rv.max())
ax.set_xlabel("time [days]")
_ = plot_rv_curve(map_soln0)
That looks pretty similar to what we got in {ref}rv
.
Now let's also plot the transit model.
def plot_light_curve(soln, extras, mask=None):
if mask is None:
mask = np.ones(len(x), dtype=bool)
fig, axes = plt.subplots(3, 1, figsize=(10, 7), sharex=True)

ax.plot(x[mask], y[mask] - gp_mod, "k", label="de-trended data")
for i, l in enumerate("bc"):

ax.plot(x[mask], mod, label="planet {0}".format(l))
ax.legend(fontsize=10, loc=3)
ax.set_ylabel("de-trended flux [ppt]")
ax = axes[2]
mod = gp_mod + np.sum(extras["light_curves"], axis=-1)
ax.plot(x[mask], y[mask] - mod, "k")

ax.set_xlim(x[mask].min(), x[mask].max())
ax.set_xlabel("time [days]")
return fig
_ = plot_light_curve(map_soln0, extras0)
There are still a few outliers in the light curve and it can be useful to remove those before doing the full fit because both the GP and transit parameters can be sensitive to this.
To remove the outliers, we'll look at the empirical RMS of the residuals away from the GP + transit model and remove anything that is more than a 7-sigma outlier.
mod = (
extras0["gp_pred"]
+ map_soln0["mean_flux"]
+ np.sum(extras0["light_curves"], axis=-1)
)
resid = y - mod
rms = np.sqrt(np.median(resid**2))
mask = np.abs(resid) < 7 * rms
plt.plot(x, resid, "k", label="data")
plt.plot(x[~mask], resid[~mask], "xr", label="outliers")
plt.axhline(0, color="#aaaaaa", lw=1)
plt.ylabel("residuals [ppt]")
plt.xlabel("time [days]")
plt.legend(fontsize=12, loc=4)
_ = plt.xlim(x.min(), x.max())
That looks better. Let's re-build our model with this sigma-clipped dataset.
model, map_soln, extras = build_model(mask, map_soln0)
_ = plot_light_curve(map_soln, extras, mask)
Great! Now we're ready to sample.
The sampling for this model is the same as for all the previous tutorials, but it takes a bit longer. This is partly because the model is more expensive to compute than the previous ones and partly because there are some non-affine degeneracies in the problem (for example between impact parameter, eccentricity, and radius/radius ratio). It might be worth thinking about reparameterizations (in terms of duration instead of eccentricity), but that's beyond the scope of this tutorial. Besides, using more traditional MCMC methods, this would have taken a lot longer to get thousands of effective samples!
import multiprocessing
with model:
trace = pm.sample(
tune=1500,
draws=1000,
start=map_soln,
cores=2,
chains=2,
target_accept=0.95,
return_inferencedata=True,
random_seed=[203771098, 203775000],
mp_ctx=multiprocessing.get_context("fork"),
init="adapt_full",
)
Let's look at the convergence diagnostics for some of the key parameters:
import arviz as az
az.summary(
trace,
var_names=[
"period",
"r_pl",
"m_pl",
"ecc",
"omega",
"b",
"log_sigma_gp",
"log_rho_gp",
],
)
As you see, the effective number of samples for the impact parameters and eccentricites are lower than for the other parameters. This is because of the correlations that I mentioned above:
import corner
_ = corner.corner(trace, var_names=["b", "ecc", "r_pl"])
Finally, we can make folded plots of the transits and the radial velocities and compare to the posterior model predictions. (Note: planets b and c in this tutorial are swapped compared to the labels from Petigura et al. (2016))
