Detection of Exoplanets Using the Transit Method

2018 
I conducted differential photometry on a star GSC 3281-0800, a known host to exoplanet HAT-P-32b, using analysis software AstroImageJ. I plotted the measurements from a series of images taken during the transit, via ADU count given from an earth-based digital CCD camera. I was able to establish a definite light curve and learn more about the properties of this exoplanet.
