The K2 Mission: Characterization and Early Results
Steve B. Howell,Charlie Sobeck,Michael J. Haas,Martin Still,Thomas Barclay,Fergal Mullally,Fergal Mullally,John Troeltzsch,Suzanne Aigrain,Stephen T. Bryson,D. A. Caldwell,D. A. Caldwell,William J. Chaplin,William J. Chaplin,William D. Cochran,Daniel Huber,Daniel Huber,Geoffrey W. Marcy,Andrea Miglio,Andrea Miglio,Joan Najita,Marcie Smith,Marcie Smith,Joseph D. Twicken,Joseph D. Twicken,Jonathan J. Fortney +25 more
TL;DR: The K2 mission as discussed by the authors uses an innovative way of operating the Kepler spacecraft to observe target fields along the ecliptic for the next 2-3 years, with an estimated photometric precision near 400 ppm in a single 30 minute observation.

TL;DR: The difference between the planetary radius measured at optical and infrared wavelengths is an effective metric for distinguishing different atmosphere types, so that strong water absorption lines are seen in clear-atmosphere planets and the weakest features are associated with clouds and hazes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rotation periods of 34,030 kepler main-sequence stars: the full autocorrelation sample
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed three years of data from the Kepler space mission to derive rotation periods of main-sequence stars below 6500 K. They found typically higher amplitudes for shorter periods and lower effective temperatures, with an excess of low-amplitude stars above ∼5400 K.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the discovery of very shallow (ΔF/F ≈ 3.4× 10 −4 ) periodic dips in the light curve of an active V = 11.7 G9V star observed by the CoRoT satellite, which they interpret as caused by a transiting companion.
