High-Resolution Spectroscopy (HRS) has been used to study the composition and dynamics of exoplanetary atmospheres. In particular, the spectrometer CRIRES installed on the ESO-VLT has been used to record high-resolution spectra in the Near-IR of gaseous exoplanets. Here we present a new automatic pipeline to analyze CRIRES data-sets. Said pipeline is based on a novel use of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Cross-Correlation Function (CCF). The exoplanetary atmosphere is modeled with the $tau$-REx code using opacities at high temperature from the ExoMol project. In this work, we tested our analysis tools on the detection of CO and H$_2$O in the atmospheres of the hot-Jupiters HD209458b and HD189733b. The results of our pipeline are in agreement with previous results in the literature and other techniques.

We present a new method of analysing and quantifying velocity structure in star forming regions suitable for the rapidly increasing quantity and quality of stellar position-velocity data. The method can be applied to data in any number of dimensions,
does not require the centre or characteristic size (e.g. radius) of the region to be determined, and can be applied to regions with any underlying density and velocity structure. We test the method on a variety of example datasets and show it is robust with realistic observational uncertainties and selection effects. This method identifies velocity structures/scales in a region, and allows a direct comparison to be made between regions.
Dimension reduction for high-dimensional compositional data plays an important role in many fields, where the principal component analysis of the basis covariance matrix is of scientific interest. In practice, however, the basis variables are latent
and rarely observed, and standard techniques of principal component analysis are inadequate for compositional data because of the simplex constraint. To address the challenging problem, we relate the principal subspace of the centered log-ratio compositional covariance to that of the basis covariance, and prove that the latter is approximately identifiable with the diverging dimensionality under some subspace sparsity assumption. The interesting blessing-of-dimensionality phenomenon enables us to propose the principal subspace estimation methods by using the sample centered log-ratio covariance. We also derive nonasymptotic error bounds for the subspace estimators, which exhibits a tradeoff between identification and estimation. Moreover, we develop efficient proximal alternating direction method of multipliers algorithms to solve the nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed methods perform as well as the oracle methods with known basis. Their usefulness is illustrated through an analysis of word usage pattern for statisticians.
Ariel has been selected as the next ESA M4 science mission and it is expected to be launched in 2028. During its 4-year mission, Ariel will observe the atmospheres of a large and diversified population of transiting exoplanets. A key factor for the a
chievement of the scientific goal of Ariel is the selection strategy for the definition of the input target list. A meaningful choice of the targets requires an accurate knowledge of the planet hosting star properties and this is necessary to be obtained well before the launch. In this work, we present the results of a bench-marking analysis between three different spectroscopic techniques used to determine stellar parameters for a selected number of targets belonging to the Ariel reference sample. We aim to consolidate a method that will be used to homogeneously determine the stellar parameters of the complete Ariel reference sample. Homogeneous, accurate and precise derivation of stellar parameters is crucial for characterizing exoplanet-host stars and in turn is a key factor for the accuracy of the planet properties.
Our work presents an independent calibration of the J-region Asymptotic Giant Branch (JAGB) method using Infrared Survey Facility (IRSF) photometric data and a custom luminosity function profile to determine JAGB mean magnitudes for nine galaxies. We
determine a mean absolute magnitude of carbon stars of $M_{LMC}=-6.212 pm 0.010$ (stat.) $pm 0.030$ (syst.) mag. We then use near-infrared photometry of a number of nearby galaxies, originally obtained by our group to determine their distances from Cepheids using the Leavitt law, in order to independently determine their distances with the JAGB method. We compare the JAGB distances obtained in this work with the Cepheid distances resulting from the same photometry and find very good agreement between the results from the two methods. The mean difference is 0.01 mag with an rms scatter of 0.06 mag after taking into account seven out of the eight analyzed galaxies that had their distances determined using Cepheids. The very accurate distance to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) based on detached eclipsing binaries (Graczyk et al. 2020) is also in very good agreement with the distance obtained from carbon stars.
Instrumental data are affected by systematic effects that dominate the errors and can be relevant when searching for small signals. This is the case of the K2 mission, a follow up of the Kepler mission, that, after a failure on two reaction wheels, h
as lost its stability properties rising strongly the systematics in the light curves and reducing its photometric precision. In this work, we have developed a general method to remove time related systematics from a set of light curves, that has been applied to K2 data. The method uses the Principal Component Analysis to retrieve the correlation between the light curves due to the systematics and to remove its effect without knowing any information other than the data itself. We have applied the method to all the K2 campaigns available at the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes, and we have tested the effectiveness of the procedure and its capability in preserving the astrophysical signal on a few transits and on eclipsing binaries. One product of this work is the identification of stable sources along the ecliptic plane that can be used as photometric calibrators for the upcoming Atmospheric Remote-sensing Exoplanet Large-survey mission.
