Abstract: Since the detection of the first extrasolar planets thirty-five years ago, the dawn in detected signals has been driven primarily by radial velocity and transit techniques. However, other methodologies have gained significant interest due to their ability to explore specific niches that are challenging to access with traditional approaches. In this article, we focus on the photometric orbital phase modulations induced by planets, describe the methodologies and equations and highlight their developments and prospects for the future.
