Blind source separation techniques are used to reanalyse two exoplanetary transit lightcurves of the exoplanet HD189733b recorded with the IR camera IRAC on board the Spitzer Space Telescope at 3.6$\mu$m during the "cold" era. These…

The characterisation of ever smaller and fainter extrasolar planets requires an intricate understanding of one's data and the analysis techniques used. Correcting the raw data at the 10^-4 level of accuracy in flux is one of the central…

We present here new transmission spectra of the hot Jupiter HD-189733b using the SpeX instrument on the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility. We obtained two nights of observations where we recorded the primary transit of the planet in the J-,…

This paper presents and discusses the application of blind source separation to astrophysical data obtained with the WMAP satellite. Blind separation permits to identify and isolate a component compatible with CMB emission, and to measure…

Independent Component Analysis (ICA) has recently been shown to be a promising new path in data analysis and de-trending of exoplanetary time series signals. Such approaches do not require or assume any prior or auxiliary knowledge on the…

Exoplanetary transmission spectroscopy in the near-infrared using Hubble/NICMOS is currently ambiguous because different observational groups claim different results from the same data, depending on their analysis methodologies. Spatial…

We present a re-analysis of archival HST/NICMOS transmission spectroscopy of three exoplanet systems; HD 189733, GJ-436 and XO-1. Detections of several molecules, including H20, CH4 and CO2, have been claimed for HD 189733 and XO-1, but…

We present a re-analysis of archival HST/NICMOS transmission spectroscopy of the exoplanet system, HD 189733, from which detections of several molecules have been claimed. As expected, we can replicate the transmission spectrum previously…

Spectroscopic observations of exoplanets are crucial to infer the composition and properties of their atmospheres. HD 189733b is one of the most extensively studied exoplanets and is a corner stone for hot Jupiter models. In this paper, we…

The study of the atmospheres of transiting exoplanets requires a photometric precision, and repeatability, of one part in $\sim 10^4$. This is beyond the original calibration plans of current observatories, hence the necessity to…

This work is concerned with the problem of blind source separation and its applications to imaging. We first establish a theoretical result that we stated in our previous article on imaging in diffusive environments. This result is a…

The research of effective and reliable detrending methods for Spitzer data is of paramount importance for the characterization of exoplanetary atmospheres. To date, the totality of exoplanetary observations in the mid- and far-infrared, at…

A blind source separation method is described to extract sources from data mixtures where the underlying sources are assumed to be sparse and uncorrelated. The approach used is to detect and analyse segments of time where one source exists…

Spectral features corresponding to methane and water opacity were reported based on spectroscopic observations of HD 189733b with Hubble/NICMOS. Recently, these data, and other NICMOS exoplanet spectroscopy measurements, have been…

Context: Infrared spectroscopy of primary and secondary eclipse events probes the composition of exoplanet atmospheres and, using space telescopes, has detected H2O, CH4 and CO2 in three hot Jupiters. However, the available data from space…

Blind source separation is a research hotspot in the field of signal processing because it aims to separate unknown source signals from observed mixtures through an unknown transmission channel. A low computational complexity instantaneous…

We propose a multi-tone decomposition algorithm that can find the frequencies, amplitudes and phases of the fundamental sinusoids in a noisy observation sequence. Under independent identically distributed Gaussian noise, our method utilizes…

We present a technique for the blind separation of components in CMB data. The method uses a spectral EM algorithm which recovers simultaneously component templates, their emission law as a function of wavelength, and noise levels. We test…

We extend a data-based model-free multifractal method of exoplanet detection to probe exoplanetary atmospheres. Whereas the transmission spectrum is studied during the primary eclipse, we analyze the emission spectrum during the secondary…

We present a blind multi-detector multi-component spectral matching method for all sky observations of the cosmic microwave background, working on the spherical harmonics basis. The method allows to estimate on a set of observation maps the…
