Improved Occurrence Rates of Exoplanets - Daniel Huber (SETITalks)
Μετάδοση με ζωντανή ροή στις 1 Απρ 2014
Abstract: The detection of over 3000
new exoplanets by the NASA Kepler mission has opened up the possibility
to infer the occurrence rate of planets in the habitable zones of stars
in our galaxy. However, both the characteristics of the detected
planets and their occurrence rates crucially depend on our understanding
of properties of the stars that were observed. In this talk I will
present current efforts to improve our understanding of fundamental
properties of Kepler target stars and their planets, in particular using
the technique of asteroseismology. I will furthermore discuss the
prospects of Kepler's follow-up mission, K2, for advancing our
understanding of exoplanets and stellar astrophysics.
