Scientific paper

As for the Asterosismology channel, CoRoT Exoplanet channel light curves are obtained using photometric apertures. In the beginning of each run, the flight software needs to be reconfigured in order to put in place the photometric apertures so as to optimize the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the measured light curves. EXOWIN is the software dedicated to this task. It is designed to work with a trio of full frame images which will be preprocessed in order to apply different corrections. The stars will then be identified and a basket of about 6000 stars per CCD will be assigned to a photometric aperture.
