Measurements of stellar inclinations for kepler planet candidates

We present an investigation of spin-orbit angles for planetary system candidates reported by Kepler. By combining the rotational period P[subscript s] inferred from the flux variation due to starspots and the projected rotational velocity Vsin I[subscript s] and stellar radius obtained by a high-res...
