Leger, A., Rouan, D., Schneider, J., Barge, P., Fridlund, M., Samuel, B., ...
We report the discovery of very shallow (DF/F = 3.4 10-4), periodic dips in the light curve of an active V = 11.7 G9V star observed by the CoRoT satellite, which we interpret as due to the presence...

The secondary eclipse of CoRoT-1b (2009)
Alonso, R., Alapini, A., Aigrain, S., Auvergne, M., Baglin, A., Barbieri, M., ...
The transiting planet CoRoT-1b is thought to belong to the pM-class of planets, in which the thermal emission dominates in the optical wavelengths. We present a detection of its secondary eclipse in...
The secondary eclipse of the transiting exoplanet CoRoT-2b (2009)
Alonso, R., Guillot, T., Mazeh, T., Aigrain, S., Alapini, A., Barge, P., ...
We present a study of the light curve of the transiting exoplanet CoRoT-2b, aimed at detecting the secondary eclipse and measuring its depth. The data were obtained with the CoRoT satellite during...
The detrending algorithms which are widely used to reduce the impact of stellar variability on space-based transit surveys are ill-suited for estimating the parameters of confirmed planets, as they...
Noise properties of the CoRoT data: a planet-finding perspective (2009)
Aigrain, S., Pont, F., Fressin, F., Alapini, A., Alonso, R., Auvergne, M., ...
In this short paper, we study the photometric precision of stellar light curves obtained by the CoRoT satellite in its planet finding channel, with a particular emphasis on the timescales...
Noise properties of the CoRoT data. A planet-finding perspective (2009)
Aigrain, S, Pont, F, Fressin, F, Alapini, A, Alonso, R, Auvergne, M, ...
Deeg, H J, Gillon, Michaël, Shporer, A, Rouan, D, Stecklum, B, Aigrain, S, ...
The motivation, techniques and performance of the ground-based photometric follow-up of transit detections by the CoRoT space mission are presented. Its principal raison d’être arises from the...
