Hipparcos Modelling
This tutorial explains how to model Hipparcos IAD data. The first example reproduces the catalog values of position, parallax, and proper motion. The second uses Hipparcos to constrain the mass of a directly imaged planet.
Reproduce Catalog Values
This is the so-called "Nielsen" test from Nielsen et al (2020) and available in Orbitize!.
We start by using a system with a planet with zero mass to fit the straight line motion.
using Octofitter

dec = $hip_like.hip_sol.dedeg + ra_hip_offset_mas/60/60/1000

end
)
model = Octofitter.LogDensityModel(sys)LogDensityModel for System c_Eri_straight_line of dimension 5 and 104 epochs with fields .ℓπcallback and .∇ℓπcallback
Let's initialize the starting point for the chains to reasonable values
initialize!(model, (;
plx=34.,
pmra=44.25,
pmdec=-64.5,
ra_hip_offset_mas=0.,
dec_hip_offset_mas=0.,
))We can now sample from the model using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo. This should only take about 15 seconds.
using Pigeons
chain,pt = octofit_pigeons(model, n_rounds=6)(chain = MCMC chain (64×21×1 Array{Float64, 3}), pt = PT(checkpoint = false, ...))Plot the posterior values:
octoplot(model,chain,show_astrom=false,show_astrom_time=false)
We now visualize the model fit compared to the Hipparcos catalog values:
using LinearAlgebra, StatsBase

Constrain Planet Mass
We now allow the planet to have a non zero mass and have free orbit. We start by specifying relative astrometry data on the planet, collated by Jason Wang and co. on whereistheplanet.com.

We see that we constrained both the orbit and the parallax. The mass is not strongly constrained by Hipparcos.
