An iterative filter to reconstruct planetary transit signals in the presence of stellar variability

The detrending algorithms which are widely used to reduce the impact of stellar variability on space-based transit surveys are ill-suited for estimating the parameters of confirmed planets, as they unavoidably alter the transit signal. We present a post-detection detrending algorithm, which filters...
