Fit RV and Proper Motion Anomaly
In this example, we will fit an orbit model to a combination of radial velocity and Hipparcos-GAIA proper motion anomaly for the star $\epsilon$ Eridani. We will use some of the radial velocity data collated in Mawet et al 2019.
Radial velocity modelling is supported in Octofitter via the extension package OctofitterRadialVelocity. To install it, run pkg> add OctofitterRadialVelocity
Datasets from two different radial velocity insturments are included and modelled together with separate jitters and instrumental offsets.

In the interests of time, we set N_ave=1
to speed up the computation. This parameter controls how the model smears out the simulated Gaia and Hipparcos measurements in time. For a real target, leave it at the default value once you have completed testing.

Now sample. You could use HMC via octofit
or tempered sampling via octofit_pigeons
. When using tempered sampling, make sure to start julia with julia --thread=auto
. Each additional round doubles the number of posterior samples, so n_rounds=10
gives 1024 samples. You should adjust n_chains
to be roughly double the Λ
value printed out during sample, and n_chains_variational
to be roughly double the Λ_var
column.
using Pigeons
results, pt = octofit_pigeons(model, n_rounds=10, n_chains=10, n_chains_variational=0, explorer=SliceSampler());

We can now plot the results with a multi-panel plot:
octoplot(model, results, show_mass=true)
We can also plot just the RV curve from the maximum a-posteriori fit:
fig = Octofitter.rvpostplot(model, results)
We can see what the visual orbit looks like for the maximum a-posteriori sample (note, we would need to run an optimizer to get the true MAP value; this is just the MCMC sample with higest posterior density):
i_max = argmax(results[:logpost][:])
fig = octoplot(
model,
results[i_max,:,:],
# change the colour map a bit:
colormap=Makie.cgrad([Makie.wong_colors()[1], "#FAFAFA"]),
show_astrom=true,
show_astrom_time=false,
show_rv=false,
show_hgca=false,
