\n", + " Newer versions of kima now allow for a stellar jitter parameter \n", + " which is shared between all the instruments. By default, this parameter is fixed to zero \n", + " to recover the old behaviour.\n", + "
\n", "\n", + " In this example, we used some properties of the data to assign priors for a few parameters.\n", + " Some Bayesians might not agree with this and, in general, they would be right. \n", + " However, note in the figures above for the original analysis how there's just no posterior \n", + " mass across very very wide regions of the prior. Upon realizing this, we tried to come up \n", + " with more informative priors. That means that, in essence, we just performed a prior \n", + " sensitivity analysis, and concluded that the posterior estimates for the parameters were consistent.\n", + "
\n", + "\n", + " Note also that this is very different from setting a prior for the orbital period\n", + " based on a periodogram analysis, for example, which is almost never justified.\n", + "
