Scientific paper

We report on the progress of a project to search for planets on circumbinary orbits around eclipsing stars in the Kepler field with a special focus on systems where the planet is seen to transit one or both stars. We describe the unique photometric signatures in such systems and the degree to which they are affected by both dynamical and light time effects. Kepler was selected as the 10th mission of the Discovery Program. Funding for this mission is provided by NASA, Science Mission Directorate.
