=[[Photometry]]=
 
A discussion of what photometry is and why you would want to do it.  Includes where to find already-reduced Spitzer photometry.
 
Also see [[Aperture photometry using APT]].
 
  
=[[Units]]=
 
If you've done photometry before and expect to do it the same way here, BE CAREFUL because IT WILL NOT WORK.  The units of Spitzer images can be tricky. This page has a lot of information about these units and how to convert them into more familiar units.
 
  
=[[Color-Magnitude and Color-Color plots]]=
 
A general discussion of color-magnitude and color-color plots.
 
 
=[[SED plots]]=
 
A general discussion of spectral energy distribution (SED) plots.
 
 
=[[Make_a_simple_mosaic|Making a simple mosaic]] (with Spitzer data and tools) =
 
This page describes how to make a simple mosaic by combining post-BCD mosaics from more than 1 AOR into one large mosaic.
 
 
=[[Making Mosaics Using MONTAGE]]=
 
MONTAGE is a software package that allows you to make mosaics from any set of astronomical images (e.g., not just Spitzer images).

=[[Accessing Kepler and CoRoT data]]=
 
Kepler and CoRoT data are much more than just exoplanets, but of course they're in here too.
 
 
=[[What is a periodogram?]]=
 
Information on periodograms -- what they are, why you care about them, and how to use NStED's tool for determining them.
 
 
=[[Studying Young Stars]]=
 
More information on the study of young stars, not necessarily specifically Spitzer-related.
 
 
=Working with star-forming regions=
 
[[Working with L1688]] -- A sample analysis thread using Lynds 1688, developed in the context of the Lynds Cloud team (2008). This is n entire chain of analysis for Lynds 1688 (a star-forming region), start to finish.  [[Working with CG4+SA101]], an adaptation of "Working with L1688", with specific application to that project in CG4+SA101, from 2010.
 
[[Working with the BRCs]], a further adaptation of those pages, with specific application to that 2011 project.
 
 
=[[Studying Variable Stars]]=
 
More information on the study of variable stars, light curves, eclipsing binaries, etc.
 
 
=[[Studying AGN]]=
 
More information on the study of active galactic nuclei (AGN).
