Towards a Self-calibrating, Empirical, Light-Weight Model for Tellurics in High-Resolution Spectra

Christopher Leet, Debra A. Fischer, Jeff A. Valenti

To discover Earth analogs around other stars, next generation spectrographs must measure radial velocity (RV) with 10 cm/s precision. To achieve 10cm/s precision, however, the effe…
