Problem
Using the data given in the text, and assuming that the orbital inclination is 90∘, use TwoStars (Appendix K) to generate data that model the light curve of OGLE-TR-56b. You may assume that the radius of the planet is approximately the radius of Jupiter (7×107 m) and its temperature is roughly 1000 K. Take the temperature of the star to be 3000 K. You may also assume that the planet's orbit is perfectly circular.
