Title:
Photometric and Spectroscopic Follow-up of Transiting Planet Candidates
Project Description:
We are reobserving candidate extrasolar planets with the ANU 2.3m telescope, taking both precise brightness measurements and obtaining spectra of the candidates to determine if these objects are indeed planets. These observations are also important pilot observations in preparing for a future large-scale planet search with the ANU SkyMapper Telescope.
