Jul 4 at 16:08 comment added Ritvik Sai Narayan Here are the papers I referenced: A Hubble Space Telescope transit light curve for GJ 436b DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361:200810013 HST/FGS Photometry of Planetary Transits of HD 209458 DOI: 10.1063/1.1774516 Perhaps, this is my own lack of knowledge, but I seem to have trouble in how to use IRAF for the data reduction/light curve fitting pipeline. I have RAW fits files from the FGS. Questions I have: - How can I find my star in the image based on RA and Dec? (I have some knowledge on how to do this using python via Astropy's WCS) - How can I calcuate photometry values for a light curve?
Jul 3 at 14:01 comment added planetmaker Which papers did you find and did not consider helpful or useful? I find quite a few, too, so what you referenced will be helpful. What information are you missing, where exactly do you get stuck? Please be specific. What is wrong with the IRAF software? It's readily available and well-documented, its latest release from April this year. The more you elaborate, the more helpful any answer can be.
