2026
A planet–host ratio relation to synthesise microlensing and transiting exoplanet demography from Roman
Edmondson & Kerins · MNRAS

A direct empirical link between the native observables of Roman's microlensing and transit samples, designed to use the full planetary sample in joint demographic modelling.

2026
Technique-agnostic exoplanet demography for the Roman era – I
Priyadarshi, Kerins et al. · arXiv (under review)

A forward-modelling framework that embeds planetary systems in a Galactic stellar-population model and enables demographic inference across detection techniques.

2026
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q2) — The Euclid Galactic Bulge Survey
Beaulieu et al. · arXiv (under review)

First data from the survey in which I led the team during the design, commissioning and execution phases: the widest high-resolution imaging of the Galactic bulge.

2023
Kepler K2 Campaign 9 – II. First space-based discovery of an exoplanet using microlensing
Specht et al. · MNRAS

Confirmation of K2-2016-BLG-0005Lb, a Jupiter analogue ~17,000 light-years away. The first confirmed planet detected with microlensing by a space telescope.

2023
Magnifying NASA Roman GBTDS exoplanet science with coordinated observations by ESA Euclid
Roman Core Community Survey white paper · arXiv

The science and technical case for a coordinated Euclid–Roman bulge programme.

2023
Transiting exoplanet yields for the Roman Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey predicted from pixel-level simulations
Wilson et al. · ApJS

60,000–200,000 transiting planets expected from Roman across Galactic distances.

2021
Kepler K2 Campaign 9 – I. Candidate short-duration events from the first space-based survey for planetary microlensing
McDonald et al. · MNRAS

27 candidate events, including free-floating Earth-mass planet candidates. Widely covered in international press.

2021
Mutual Detectability: a targeted SETI strategy that avoids the SETI Paradox
Kerins · AJ

A game-theoretic approach to where we should search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

2019
Predictions of the WFIRST (Roman) microlensing survey I: bound planet detection rates
Penny et al. · ApJS

The benchmark forecast that has been used to define and shape the Roman exoplanet survey: ~1,400 cool planets down to the mass of Mars.

2019
SPEARNET: automated detection and characterisation of exoplanet atmospheres
Morgan et al. · MNRAS

An automated method for choosing planet targets for atmospheric study using globally distributed networks of telescopes with varying capability.
