MEASUREMENTS OF STELLAR INCLINATIONS FOR KEPLER PLANET CANDIDATES. II. CANDIDATE SPIN-ORBIT MISALIGNMENTS IN SINGLE- AND MULTIPLE-TRANSITING SYSTEMS
We present a test for spin-orbit alignment for the host stars of 25 candidate planetary systems detected by the Kepler spacecraft. The inclination angle of each star's rotation axis was estimated from its rotation period, rotational line broadening, and radius. The rotation periods were determi...
