Precision photometry for planetary transits
Frederic Pont, Claire Moutou
We review the state of the art in follow-up photometry for planetary transit searches. Three topics are discussed: (1) Photometric monitoring of planets discovered by radial veloci…
DECPHOT: an optimal deconvolution-based photometric reduction method
M. Gillon, P. Magain, V. Chantry +5
A high accuracy photometric reduction method is needed to take full advantage of the potential of the transit method for the detection and characterization of exoplanets, especiall…
Potential of Photometric Searches for Transiting Planets
Frederic Pont, the ISSI Working Group on Transiting Planets
Many ground-based photometric surveys are now under way, and five of them have been successful at detecting transiting exoplanets. Nevertheless, detecting transiting planets has tu…
The Cepheid Distance Scale after Hipparcos
Frederic Pont
More than two hundred classical cepheids were measured by the Hipparcos astrometric satellite, making possible a geometrical calibration of the cepheid distance scale. However, the…
Structural Properties of s-Cepheid Velocity Curves
F. Kienzle, P. Moskalik, D. Bersier +1
The light curves of the first overtone Pop. I Cepheids (s-Cepheids) show a discontinuity in their phi_21 vs. P diagram, near P=3.2 day. This feature, commonly attributed to the 2:1…
