[PDF][PDF] Investigating exoplanet systems using the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect through the application of least-squares deconvolution

LS Dolan - pure.qub.ac.uk
ABSTRACT The Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect arises from the rotation of a star as a
planet transits. The star can be split into two hemispheres; one is blue-shifted as it rotates …
