KnowraPlanetary transitLinked fromLinked fromThe 10 pages that link to Planetary transit, each with the reason it gives.All 10Broader topic 3Related 3Narrower topic 1Compared with 3Transit methodBroader topic: This alignment produces the brightness dip the method measures.Kepler Space TelescopeBroader topic: Each observed transit produced a small, temporary decrease in a target star’s light.Eclipsing binaryCompared with: A transit also dims starlight, but the foreground body is a planet rather than a star.Transit timing variationNarrower topic: A sequence of planetary transits supplies the recurring events whose intervals are compared.Angular diameterRelated: Transit depth depends on the planet's apparent size relative to the star.HD 209458 bRelated: Repeated transits reveal this planet’s radius and orbital period.Planetary radiusRelated: A transit's fractional loss of starlight yields the planet-to-star radius ratio.Pulsar planetCompared with: Transit searches use a brightness dip, unlike the pulse-arrival shifts central to pulsar-planet detection.Kepler-22bBroader topic: Each observed passage produced a small, repeatable dip in Kepler-22’s brightness.Gliese 581dCompared with: A transit would offer evidence independent of the radial-velocity signal disputed for Gliese 581d.
