MotivationMotivation• Goal AGoal A -- -- More Exoplanet transits’ data More Exoplanet transits’ data help to help to
derive higher accuracy planet parameters ; derive higher accuracy planet parameters ; discover the possible “third” object by transit discover the possible “third” object by transit timing. timing.
• Goal BGoal B -- -- Try to detect transits of those known Try to detect transits of those known exoplanets which were discovered by RV method exoplanets which were discovered by RV method but still without transit detections.but still without transit detections.
• Goal CGoal C -- -- Make follow-up photometry Make follow-up photometry observations of the new exoplanet systems observations of the new exoplanet systems discovered by our new high-res spectrograph (will discovered by our new high-res spectrograph (will be installed by the end of this year, by NIAOT).be installed by the end of this year, by NIAOT).
