Characterising exoplanets in reflected light: a pathway towards Earth-like worlds
- Abstract:
-
The study of the reflected light of exoplanets and the insights it provides on their atmospheres is a poorly developed but crucial avenue of research in exoplanet characterisation. It will be key in characterising nearby potentially Earth-like worlds due to their low temperatures and low transit probability. The upcoming Extremely Large Telescopes will offer the first opportunities to characterise nearby, potentially Earth-like worlds but will require high spectral resolution to make robus...
