  1. MOST Guide Star Photometry Overview, Statistical Analysis by Rainer Kuschnig & the MOST Team COROT WEEK 10 - 5-9 June 2006 – Nice

  2. MOST Photometry Sources Science CCD open field direct imaging Fabry target Guide stars Direct imaging targets micro Lens Array Star Tracker CCD COROT WEEK 10 - 5-9 June 2006 – Nice

  3. MOST Guide Star Photometry • up to 20 guide stars per field • the magnitude range 6.5-11 • exposure time is 1.5 sec • no images are recovered • brightest guide stars -> 30ppm COROT WEEK 10 - 5-9 June 2006 – Nice

  4. MOST Guide Star Photometry 1.5 sec exposure calculate background apply threshold Sigexp = S (Ipix > backgr+threshold) Sigtot = S N*Sigexp -> stored in the science data stream N = integer (target sampling time / guide Star exposure Time) COROT WEEK 10 - 5-9 June 2006 – Nice
