Kepler Project Document: KSCI-19085 Planet Detection Metrics: Window and 1sigma Depth Functions for DR24

This document describes the window and one-sigma depth functions produced by the Transiting Planet Search (TPS) algorithm in the Kepler pipeline (Jenkins 2002). The window function specifies the fraction of phase space over which three transits are observable as a function of orbital period. The one-sigma depth function specifies the depth of a signal (in ppm) for a given light curve that results in a one-sigma detection of a transit signature as a function of orbital period when averaged over phase.

This dataset or service is made available by the NASA Exoplanet Science Institute at IPAC, which is operated by the California Institute of Technology under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
