A trend filtering algorithm for wide-field variability surveys (2004, unknown): “…known to exist in various massive photometric surveys (see, e.g., Drake & Cook 2004 for the MACHO and Kruszewski & Semeniuk 2003 for the OGLE projects) and even in classical CCD observations (Makidon et al. 2004), but in wide field observations they could be especially severe (Alonso et al. 2003).”
Can Giant Planets Form by Direct Gravitational Instability? (2004, background): “Even for f(τ) = 1 this mass is larger than masses of most extrasolar giant planets detected to date (Marcy et al. 2003).”
TrES-1: The Transiting Planet of a Bright K0 V Star (2004, background): “There are now dozens of ground-based photometric searches underway that aim to detect planets of distant stars by means of their photometric signatures (Horne 2003), as well as several space projects with the same purpose (Auvergne et al. 2003; Borucki et al. 2003).”
