Megan Bedell (Flatiron) and I discussed some possible projects that connect ESA Gaia astrometric exoplanet information with ground-based spectroscopic radial-velocity information to discover sub-threshold planets that aren't detectable in either data set individually. We are planning possible undergraduate research projects for summer students. And we are thinking about the conditions under which a planet can be said to be discovered or confirmed.
