摘要: We report follow-up observations of four transiting exoplanets, TRES-2b, HAT-P-22b, HAT-P-36b and XO-2b, as part the Original Research By Young Twinkle Students (ORBYTS) programme. These were taken using Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network's (LCOGT) robotic 0.4 m telescopes analysed HOlomon Photometric Software (HOPS). Such are key for ensuring accurate transit times upcoming telescopes, such James Webb Space (JWST), Ariel, which may seek to characterise atmospheres these planets. The data have been uploaded ExoClock a significant portion this work has completed by secondary school students in London.
