Signal Search and Reconstruction by a Trend Filtering Algorithm

Authors: G. Kovacs, G.A. Bakos

Comments: Contributed paper, to appear in the proceedings (ASP Conf. Ser.) of the workshop "Transiting Extrasolar Planets Workshop" held at the Max-Planck Institut fuer Astronomie, Heidelberg, Germany, September 25-28th, 2006. The paper contains 6 pages with 2 figures and 3 tables

We present additional tests of our algorithm aimed at filtering out systematics due to data reduction and instrumental imperfections in time series obtained by ensemble photometry. Signal detection efficiency is demonstrated, and a method of decreasing the false alarm probability is presented. Including the recently discovered transiting extrasolar planet HAT-P-1, we show various examples on the signal reconstruction capability of the method.
