APH00004sf, APH000037g

  • delpiano by delpiano

    I really, really want to know what do experts think of these two:

    I measured several periods and arrived to a 5h:57m periodic dip of 0.8% of the star's light on APH00004sf.

    I also find this very weird: APH000037g features 2 periodic dips, one dimming 4% of the light, the other 0.6%. They both seem to have a 15d-ish period (with a 5 to 6 day shift). Could these be resonant planets, or are they something else?

    I'm just an amateur Engineer willing to learn more and to help.

    Thanks!

    Not an expert but yes, you see transits but probably they are from stellar eclipses and not planets:

    KIC 8075755 a background EB, see comments posted before yours and also: http://oldtalk.planethunters.org/discussions/DPH101e7gi?object_id=APH10098967

    KIC 3830820 flagged as Eclipsing_binary; P/E=15.582788/135.114621

    You can use the Kepler ID (KIC, KID) listed to check these and others in the future for yourself:

    http://keplerebs.villanova.edu

    Also you can search for these Kepler IDs on PH2 or the older PH1 site to find even more info that others might have posted. And there is more help info for you here on Planet Hunters about distinguishing EB eclipses from possible planet transits.

    Hope this helps, have fun.
