This is the source code for the Kepler Centroid Robovetter, a part of the Kepler Robovetter.

The code finds signals otherwise incorrectly identified as planets in the Kepler Planet Candidate Catalogues. This part of the robovetter finds transit like signals on stars near the target, where the light spills into the aperture of the target star causing a false positive.

The algorithm is documented in detail in Mullally et al (2015c), submitted
to ApJ. The code can **not** be run. It uses as inputs intermediate products of the Kepler pipeline that are not made publicly available. The code is made available as detailed explanation of how the algorithm was implemented.

The versions of the code used in support of the various catalog
papers are kept in the tags directory:

* q1q16: Mullally et al. (2015, ApJS 216, 31)
* q1q17-dr24: Mullally et al (2016, in prep)

The trunk contains the latest version of the code. The top level function in each case is called wrapperv2.m
