We present a new implementation of the commonly used Box-fitting Least Squares (BLS) algorithm, for detection transiting exoplanets in photometric data. Unlike BLS, our - Sparse BLS (SBLS), does not use binning data into phase bins, nor it any kind grid. Thus, its efficiency depend on transit phase, and is therefore slightly better than that BLS. For sparse data, also significantly faster It pe...

Most agree that, in some special scenarios, prudence can speak against feeling a fitting emotion. Some go further, arguing that the tension between fittingness and afflicts emotions fairly general way. (Perhaps, for instance, it’s best human well-being we generally grieve much less than is fitting.) This paper goes even further: it argues when comes to anxiety, nearly inescapable. On any plausi...
