Summary

transittiming5 - calculates center of transit times based on folded transit model

Usage

transittiming5 <photfile> <rvfile> <fitpars> > file.tt

<photfile> : Kepler photometry in three column ascii format (time, flux, flux error)
<rvfile> : radial velocity observations in three column ascii format (time, rv, rv error). If there are not radial velocity measurements enter null
<fitpars> : file containing the transit model parameters. File must contain a single-planet model.
file.tt : Output should be redirected into a file that will contain measured transit times

Example

Just Photometry

To generate transit times for a planet with fitted parameters contained in the file n1.dat using photometry found in klc01234567.dc.dat. The fitted transit times are written to koi0123.tt.

../bin/transitsn5 klc01234567.dct.dat null n1.dat > koi0123.tt

File Format

The output file, file.tt will contain 3 columns. First column is the calculated transit time (days), second column is observed minis calculated (O-C) transit time (days), the third column is the uncertainty in O-C.
