abstract = "Since the discovery of the first exoplanets, those most adequate
for life to begin and evolve have been sought. Due to
observational bias, however, most of the discovered planets so far
are gas giants, precluding their habitability. However, if these
hot Jupiters are located in the habitable zones of their host
stars, and if rocky moons orbit them, then these moons may be
habitable. In this work, we present a model for planetary transit
simulation considering the presence of moons around a planet. The
moon orbit is considered to be circular and coplanar with the
planetary orbit. The other physical and orbital parameters of the
star, planet, and moon, can be adjusted in each simulation. It is
possible to simulate as many successive transits as desired. Since
the presence of spots on the surface of the star may produce a
signal similar to that of the presence of a moon, our model also
allows for the inclusion of starspots. The goal is to determine
the criteria for detectability of moons using photometry with the
CoRoT and Kepler telescopes taking into account the stellar
activity.",
