dc.description.abstract |
Using Ball State University’s on-campus 20-inch telescope and a differential photometric
data pipeline, we have observed two fields near the galactic mid-plane. We have collected
photometric data in the near-infrared over the course of two years to look for variability. In the
process we have discovered new variable stars as well as exoplanet candidates via the
photometric transit method. |
