Scientific paper

We summarize in this report the possibilities of observing the reflecting light of a close by giant planet. BRITE could do these kind of observations only for very bright stars, but the chances that such a bright star with a close by large planet, a hot Jupiter, exists in the Solar environment are rather small. We discuss our present knowledge of analyzing reflecting light in light curves of stars.
