Bayesian Framework for Exoplanet Biosignatures: Integrating Exo-Earth System Models, Context, and False-Positive Diagnostics

To the point

A Bayesian framework combines observational data with Exo-Earth System models of a planet’s interior, oceans, climate, and atmosphere to estimate the probability that life exists there, while guarding against abiotic false positives and updating the assessment as new data become available.

Exoplanet Biosignatures: A Framework for Their Assessment

Finding life on exoplanets from telescopic observations is an ultimate goal of exoplanet science. Life produces gases and other substances, such as pigments, which can have distinct spectral or photometric signatures. Whether or not life is found ...
