Exoplanets: formation, populations, and atmospheres  

Description

The aim of the course is to provide the student with the fundamental knowledge of the properties of planetary bodies, in our own Solar System and around other stars. The students will understand the current thinking on the origin and diversity of planets and their atmospheres. The techniques to detect planets, derive their properties, as well as the current and future possibilities to study their atmospheres will be covered. Understanding the atmospheres of other planets in the Solar System and of exoplanets will allow the student to place the Earth and its evolution in a broader cosmic context.
