FluxCT V2.0: Updates to a Web Tool Identifying Contaminating Flux in Space Telescope Data
Abstract We present FluxCT V2.0, an updated web tool for identifying contaminating flux in Kepler and TESS target pixel files. FluxCT V2.0 focuses on enhancing functionality, user experience, and data processing capabilities. We resolved existing issues to allow for an extended user base, removed known bugs, and extended the tool to any TESS pixel file, allowing the user to search any TESS point object. A batch code for TESS is now available on the companion GitHub. Additional output parameters, such as amplitude dilution and a magnitude cut, have been added to the tool, allowing users more freedom to analyze the possible effects of target sources.
