Some observational "key" papers

Please list below links to papers that were useful to you and that other AO users may find very interesting either for preparing for their observations, or reducing and analyzing their data.

It is definitely ok to list a paper here even though it has been listed elsewhere in the resource pages.

Feel free to add or make modifications to the categories below.
