Precision radial velocities with an iodine absorption cell

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used gaseous iodine for generating reference absorption lines in stellar spectra taken at high resolution, which provided both a highly precise wavelength scale (calibrated with a Fourier transform spectrum) and a specification of the spectrograph PSF over the entire echelle format.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kepler-47: A Transiting Circumbinary Multiplanet System

TL;DR: The detection of Kepler-47 establishes that close binary stars can host complete planetary systems, and reveals two small planets orbiting a pair of two low-mass stars.
