East-Asian Planet Search Network

East-Asian Planet Search Network (EAPSNET) is an international collaboration between China, Japan, and Korea. Each facility, BOAO (Korea), Xinglong (China), and OAO (Japan), has a 2m class telescope, a high dispersion echelle spectrograph, and an iodine absorption cell for precise RV measurements, looking for extrasolar planets.[1]
