Terms Photometry of Known Transiting Exoplanets [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2011 The Transit Ephemeris Refinement and Monitoring Survey conducts radial velocity and photometric monitoring of known exoplanets in order to refine planetary orbits and predictions of possible transit times. This effort is primarily directed toward planets

The effects of star spots on transit photometry [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010 We have undertaken an observational program to photometrically monitor several transiting planet host stars. The Rabus et al. result for TrES-1 showed the dramatic effects star spots can have on transit photometry.

Exoplanet characterization by multi-observatory transit photometry with TESS and CHEOPS [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017 Space-based photometric surveys have discovered large numbers of planets transiting other stars, but these observe in a single band-pass and yield only the planet radius, orbital period, and transit duration.

Transit Photometry as an Exoplanet Discovery Method [PDF]
, 2018 Photometry with the transit method has arguably been the most successful exoplanet discovery method to date. A short overview about the rise of that method to its present status is given.

Exoplanet transit photometry for stellar activity and exomoon research
, 2021 Photometry underlies important discoveries in observational astronomy, from the detection of stellar magnetic phenomena unveiling dynamic dynamo processes to the much sought-after identification of exomoons.

Photometry and transit modelling of exoplanet WASP-140b
, 2022 Eleven transit light curves for the exoplanet WASP-140b were studied with the primary objective to investigate the possibility of transit timing variations (TTVs).

Characterising transiting exoplanets by way of differential photometry [PDF]
Physics Education, 2014 This paper describes a simple activity for plotting and characterising the light curve from an exoplanet transit event by way of differential photometry analysis. Using free digital imaging software, participants analyse a series of telescope images with

Kepler Bonus: Light Curves of Kepler Background Sources
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 NASA’s Kepler primary mission observed about 116 deg ^2 in the sky for 3.5 consecutive years to discover Earth-like exoplanets. This mission recorded pixel cutouts, known as target pixel files (TPFs), of over 200,000 targets that were selected to ...
