Results from the CoRoT light curve analysis
Abstract
CoRoT is the first space-based observatory dedicated to the photometric search for extrasolar planets. Launched in December 2006, CoRoT continuously monitors between 5 and 10 thou-sands of stars per observing run, with durations of 25 days for the "short runs", 80 days for "medium runs" and 150 days for the "long runs". I will present some results about the planetary transit candidates detected in the first 10 runs observed by COROT, reported by the different detections teams settled around the collaborating institutes.
