Default TrES-1 exoplanet anomalous egress spotted in amateur light curves


Hi all,

Those of you who have been following the TrES-1 exoplanet story
might be interested in the pooled results from amateurs in Europe
and the US which appear to show an anomaly in the light curve at egress.

My webcam based results are included in the paper and, though not at a
statistically
significant level on their own, there is some sign of the anomaly in my
data. I have updated my TrES-1 web page with a graph highlighting my data
overlaid on the pooled egress data.

It will be interesting to see if the HST measurements show anything!
