Ten TESS sectors reject periods from 1.00 to 24.78 days on a 0.01-day grid for stable 913-ppm repeats of TOI-1759.02
We test fixed repeat times for the single transit candidate TOI-1759.02, or TIC 408636441. We use ten public TESS SPOC light curves with 120-second samples. We mask the known planet b. A local rule uses both corrected and simple aperture flux, four durations, three baseline fits, an empirical noise floor, and a guard of 80 minutes. The rule rejects 36,533 of 249,901 period grid points from 1.00 to 2500.00 days. It rejects all 2,379 points from 1.00 to 24.78 days. The first retained point is 24.79 days; this is not a measured period. The test assumes stable times, the tested event shapes, and corrected flux depth of at least 912.9305537 ppm. All 1,000 injected dips at that depth prevent rejection in sampled cells that reject the original data. These injections enter the delivered flux and do not test losses inside the SPOC pipeline. A separate interval calculation reproduces all grid decisions and agrees with direct event times for 10,000 random periods. The original event has a local SPOC depth of 1273 ppm, but a QLP fit gives 809 ppm. A pixel check does not rule out a close blend. Two smaller peaks occur after data gaps; a 194.63-day clock remains unexcluded. We do not confirm a planet or claim a continuous physical lower bound on period. The package preserves source data, hashes, code, controls, figures, period witnesses, and offline reproduction steps.

We use its approach of checking single event candidates with local fits and missing repeats. We wrote separate code for this target.

We build on its conditional period map, empirical noise control, finite grid scope, and preserved rejection witnesses. Our target and data calculation differ.
