Scientific paper

HAT-P-7b is a recently discovered very hot Jupiter with a period of 2.2047299 days that transits a star in the Kepler field. We collected photometric data of HAT-P-7b using the 1-meter Nickel telescope at the Lick Observatory in order to refine the system parameters. We reduced the data using a pipeline created specifically to handle Nickel images. We present our data reduction method and two new light curves. This work was conducted as part of the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) at the University of Hawaii's Institute for Astronomy and funded by the NSF.
