31 Template methods + Stabilized spectrographs : more than RVs ~40 consecudve spectra

32 Template methods + Stabilized spectrographs : more than RVs ~50 consecudve spectra Mask from Template

33 Template methods + Stabilized spectrographs : more than RVs

34 Template methods + Stabilized spectrographs : more than RVs Same principle as Cameron et al PASP, but completely model independent

35 Template methods + Stabilized spectrographs : more than RVs Anglada- Escude et al. (in prep)

36 Conclusions There is more than 1 Doppler measurement in a spectra (HARPS : 72 orders x 4096 pix) HARPS- TERRA : higher precision on K and M dwarfs Stabilized spectrographs : tons of informadon ObservaDons are not repeatable - > release spectra PS. I do not believe Alpha Cen Bb is real

37 but I would like to. There are reasonable doubts about the candidate signal (see Hatzes, A., Nature News & Views) To ESO : PLEASE release the SPECTRA of published papers Including Alpha Cen B, GJ 581, GJ 667C data, HD 88512, HD 20794, Tau CeD or at least, respond to e- mails
