- Abstract
The gradient analysis of pre- and post-transit parts of Kepler's light-curves reveals hitherto unknown photometric phenomena apparently from exoplanetary associated dust. In addition to dust tails of decaying planets, there are various manifestations of circumplanetary halos as well as pre-transit obscuring matter. Such phenomena appear a valuable source of information about dusty exoplanetary plasmas and winds.
