= TopHat (telescope)
{wiki=TopHat_(telescope)}
TopHat is a telescope designed for astronomical observations, particularly focused on characterizing exoplanets through transit photometry. It is an innovative, small-array telescope system that can perform high-precision measurements to detect the dimming of stars that occurs when a planet passes in front of them. This method allows astronomers to infer the presence of exoplanets, as well as determine their sizes and other characteristics.
