Combining laser frequency combs and iodine cell calibration techniques for Doppler detection of exoplanets by Cahoy, K., Fischer, D., Spronck, J., Demille, D.

“…While hundreds of large exoplanets have already been discovered with the Doppler technique (also called radial velocity), our goal is to improve the measurement precision so that many Earth-like planets can be detected. The smaller mass and longer period of true Earth analogues require the ability to detect a reflex velocity of ~10 cm/s over long time periods. …”

What We Should Do Before the Social Bots Take Over: Online Privacy Protection and the Political Economy of Our Near Future by Graeff, Erhardt

“…Direct interactions between humans and bots generally conjure up images from science fiction of Terminator robots or artificial intelligence gone rogue, like 2001's HAL or The Matrix. In reality, AI is still far from much of that sophistication, yet we are already faced with the ethical and legal ramifications of bots in our everyday lives. …”
