ARCSAT ID NUMBER: AS01 DESCRIPTIVE TITLE: Search for Short-Period Planets Orbiting Bright White Dwarfs PI: Brett Morris (UW) OBSERVER(S): Brett Morris (UW), Doug Branton (UW) UNCERTIFIED/UNTRAINED OBSERVERS: Undetermined Pre-MAP students ... In addition, since typical white dwarfs are roughly Earth-sized, the transit of an Earth-sized planet can cause changes in brightness on the order of several tens of percent for durations on the order of one minute (Agol 2011). ...

... WFPC2 Home . ... Bright stars near the WFPC2 field of view can cause various artifacts to appear in science images. ... When writing Phase II proposals, observers will sometimes attempt to avoid bright stars by placing them in the un-imaged "L" shaped region adjacent to CCD PC1, or in the region just outside the nominal field of view. ... In both cases the optics can image this light back onto the CCD's. Bright stars must be placed at least 10 arcseconds outside the field to avoid artifacts. ...
