Keplerbased

Keplerbased refers to a method or system that utilizes the principles or data derived from the Kepler space telescope. The Kepler space telescope, launched by NASA in 2009, was specifically designed to discover Earth-sized planets orbiting other stars. It employed the transit photometry method, observing the slight dimming of a star's light as a planet passes in front of it. The vast amount of data collected by Kepler has enabled scientists to identify thousands of exoplanet candidates, a significant portion of which have been confirmed.

A Keplerbased approach often involves analyzing this extensive dataset to identify new exoplanets, characterize their properties such as size and orbital period, and study their host stars. Researchers might use Keplerbased techniques to understand the frequency of planets in different stellar environments, the distribution of planetary sizes, or to search for potentially habitable worlds. The legacy of Kepler lies not only in the exoplanets it found but also in the advancements in data analysis and astronomical techniques that have become standard in exoplanet research. Therefore, anything described as Keplerbased implies a direct connection to or reliance on the mission's groundbreaking work and the scientific insights it continues to provide.
