Claims
-
Each detection method favors different planets: transit surveys favor large planets on short orbits; radial-velocity surveys favor massive planets; ground-based direct imaging favors young, massive planets on wide orbits; microlensing favors planets of more than about 10 Earth masses just beyond the snow line; astrometry favors massive, long-period planets. The methods are strongly complementary.
