A multi-method approach to radial-velocity measurement for single-object spectra

A multi-method approach to radial-velocity measurement for single-object spectra

The derivation of radial velocities from large numbers of spectra that typically result from survey work, requires automation. However, except for the classical cases of slowly rotating late-type spectra, existing methods of measuring Doppler shifts require fine-tuning to avoid a loss of accuracy due to the idiosyncrasies of individual spectra. …
