About
Andrew Vanderburg is a leading astrophysicist specializing in exoplanet detection, characterization, and the dynamics of planetary systems. His research focuses on discovering and analyzing transiting planets using data from NASA’s TESS mission, with particular expertise in identifying planets around K-dwarf stars and studying mean motion resonances. Vanderburg’s major contributions include the discovery of TOI-2202 b, a warm Jovian-mass planet near the 2:1 mean motion resonance, which provides critical insights into planetary formation and orbital evolution. His work on this system, published in 2021, has garnered 31 citations and exemplifies his skill in extracting precise transit signals from TESS Full Frame Images. Beyond this, Vanderburg is widely recognized for his pioneering efforts in citizen science and machine learning applications to exoplanet discovery, as well as his role in the TESS mission’s planet-hunting endeavors. With a growing citation impact and a reputation for rigorous analysis, Vanderburg continues to shape our understanding of exoplanetary architectures and the diversity of worlds beyond our solar system.
