The BKJD 1955 false transit data glitch

• by robert_gagliano

  Beware fellow PH classifiers. There is a data glitch at ~ BKJD 1955.7 that produces very frequent false transits in many of the Lc's.

  Yep, from here

  "Reflections from Jupiter also introduced artifacts in other modules when Jupiter exited the focal plane at BJD - 2454833 = 1955.75. There was a spike in the back- ground level in many modules, and in some cases, the spike was not properly removed during aperture photom- etry. This can lead to anomalous spikes or decrements in the light curves at this time."
