TrES - 5 orbits one of the faintest stars with transiting planets found to date from the ground and demonstrates that
precise photometry and followup spectroscopy are possible, albeit challenging, even for such faint stars.
Follow - up radial velocity measurements with th... ▽ More We present 44 days of high duty cycle, ultra
precise photometry of the 13th magnitude star Kepler - 5 (KIC 8191672, Teff = 6300 K, logg = 4.1), which exhibits periodic transits with a depth of 0.7 %.

The initial transit signal was identified in KELT - North survey data, and the planetary nature of the occulter was established using a combination of follow - up
photometry, high - resolution imaging, high - resolution spectroscopy, and
precise radial velocity measurements.

precise mass and density measurements of two extremely hot sub-Neptune-size planets from the K2 mission using radial velocities, K2

Abstract: The Kepler Mission relies on
precise differential
photometry to detect the 80 parts per million (ppm) signal from an Earth - Sun equivalent transit.
We detected the transit light - curve signature in the course of the TrES multi-site transiting planet survey, and confirmed the planetary nature of the companion via multicolor
photometry and
precise radial velocity measurements.
