Completeness corrections are adjustments made to observational data to account for the bias introduced by the limits of detectability in exoplanet surveys. These corrections ensure that the statistical analysis of exoplanet populations accurately reflects the true distribution and characteristics of planets by compensating for those that are too faint or too distant to be observed. By applying completeness corrections, researchers can achieve a more reliable understanding of the period-radius distribution of exoplanets.
congrats on reading the definition of completeness corrections. now let's actually learn it.
