Day 19 Banneker Institute

Today not a lot of work was done on the project. The focus was mostly on the physics behind the rest of the parameters that I will have to calculate. Most of it is cover in the following paper http://arxiv.org/pdf/astro-ph/0206228.pdf. Dr. Kipping and I were specially looking at equation 3, and how we could used it to calculate the orbit distance divided by the stellar radius.
