V1298 Tau: TESS Light Curve and Gaussian-Process Model Data

Light curve and Gaussian-process model data from TESS observations of the young star V1298 Tau. The dataset is provided by Adina D. Feinstein of the University of Chicago and includes Jupyter Notebooks for interacting with the files. The specific temporal coverage and data volume are not detailed in the available metadata.

Use Cases

• Modeling exoplanet transit signals based on the provided light curve data
• Analyzing stellar activity and noise using the Gaussian-process model data
• Developing or testing transit detection and characterization pipelines with real TESS observations
• Reproducing or extending the analysis from the associated research paper and GitHub repository

Strengths

• Includes both raw light curve data and a fitted Gaussian-process model, providing a processed analysis layer
• Associated Jupyter Notebooks offer guidance on data interaction and reproducibility
• Data originates from the TESS space telescope, a major astronomical observatory

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count and total data size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified
