Sector 33



Sector 33 Information

For full data release notes see: DRN49. For a list of TIC IDs with noted issues, see this list.

Updates:

  • As of Sector 30, co-trending basis vector (CBV) files only include the first eight principal components for the Single Scale co-trending mode.
  • As a reminder, the pipeline only uses the first eight CBVs for co-trending, because subsequent CBVs are usually dominated by stochastic noise. When using CBVs beyond 8, users should check for excess noise being introduced into the detrended light curve
  • In Sectors 30–33, the values for CBVs 9–16 are set to 0.
