OBLIQUITIES OF KEPLER STARS: COMPARISON OF SINGLE- AND MULTIPLE-TRANSIT SYSTEMS
The stellar obliquity of a transiting planetary system can be constrained by combining measurements of the star's rotation period, radius, and projected rotational velocity. Here, we present a hierarchical Bayesian technique for recovering the obliquity distribution of a population of transitin...
