Detectability of Artificial Lights from Proxima b

Elisa Tabor, Abraham Loeb. arxiv.org. May 17, 2021.

Tabor and Loeb forecast detectability of hypothetical artificial illumination on Proxima b. This is not a detection. The paper acknowledges an estimated instrument noise floor ten times its predicted signal.

Fast Radio Bursts from Extragalactic Light Sails

Manasvi Lingam, Abraham Loeb. arxiv.org. February 27, 2017.

Lingam and Loeb consider whether some fast radio bursts could be artificial propulsion beams. The paper presents conditional models and possible tests, explicitly treating the artificial explanation as more speculative than astrophysical alternatives.

SETI via Leakage from Light Sails in Exoplanetary Systems

James Guillochon, Abraham Loeb. arxiv.org. September 3, 2015.

Guillochon and Loeb model possible leakage from hypothetical light-sail propulsion systems. Simulated observing windows depend on assumed inhabited systems and operating choices; the paper supplies no detection or deployed apparatus.

Detecting industrial pollution in the atmospheres of earth-like exoplanets

Henry W. Lin, Gonzalo Gonzalez Abad, Abraham Loeb. arxiv.org. July 21, 2014.

Lin, Gonzalez Abad and Loeb model whether hypothetical industrial pollutants could be detected in an exoplanet atmosphere. Their exposure forecasts are conditional and supply no detected pollution or civilization.

Detection Technique for Artificially-Illuminated Objects in the Outer Solar System and Beyond

Abraham Loeb, Edwin L. Turner. arxiv.org. March 13, 2012.

Loeb and Turner propose tracking brightness changes with distance to help distinguish intrinsic illumination from reflected sunlight. The model requires assumptions about luminosity, geometry, spectrum and albedo. They retain conventional variability from phase, surfaces, outgassing, rotation and binary effects, plus cloud and geometry limitations for exoplanets. Historical telescope forecasts and inconclusive null results limit the proposal. The paper reports no artificial-light detection or replicated experiment.

Avi Loeb on ‘Oumuamua, Aliens, Space Archeology, Great Filters, and Superstructures

Avi Loeb, Lucas Perry. futureoflife.org. July 9, 2021.

Loeb develops his interpretation of interstellar objects, possible technosignatures and future observations, while recounting scientific and academic conversations. Natural alternatives and missing data remain explicit. UAP and ‘Oumuamua are distinguished; no personal classified briefing or government invitation is supplied. Speculative probabilities and policy proposals are not completed tests.

Natural and Artificial Spectral Edges in Exoplanets

Manasvi Lingam, Abraham Loeb. arxiv.org. May 25, 2017.

Lingam and Loeb propose spectral edges from hypothetical extensive photovoltaic surfaces as possible technosignatures. Contrast and power estimates depend on assumed coverage, reflectivity and geometry. Vegetation, minerals, clouds and ordinary heat transport remain alternatives. The figures combine cited reflectance curves and a schematic orbital scenario. The paper reports no detected extraterrestrial arrays. Historical instrument forecasts, manuscript comments and work-level Starshot support are qualified separately.
