Over the past six months, the Kepler/K2 data archive at MAST has added or updated the following five High Level Science Products:
The Kepler & K2 Science Conference V was held on March 4–8, 2019. Slide decks from the talks have now been uploaded in PDF format and are linked from the conference agenda.
In addition to the talks, we expect to upload posters in the near future. Presenters wishing to have …
More »Earlier this year we announced that we were undertaking an effort to reprocess campaigns 0–14 using the same version of the Kepler/K2 pipeline used for C15 and subsequent campaigns. This version introduced several new features and improvements, such as more sophisticated pixel calibration, better identification of spacecraft pointing …

More »The data release notes for K2 Campaign 18 are now available online. We encourage all users to review the notes.
More »The Kepler and K2 missions have provided an unprecedented data set with a precision and duration that will not be rivaled for decades. Even though the data has already contributed to nearly 2,500 scientific publications so far, the scientific community continues to extract new discoveries from the archive data …
More »This month in Lightkurve, we have added a Periodogram class, which provides a quick and easy way to create Lomb-Scargle periodograms from LightCurve objects.
Periodograms can be used to find stellar rotation rates, or the oscillation and pulsation frequencies of stars. They are commonly used in asteroseismology to identify oscillation …
