ESO Conference: Exoplanet Observations with the E-ELT

ESO Garching, Germany, 3-6 February 2014

 

Exoplanet research is one of the major science drivers for the future 39-m European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). The E-ELT project is organising a community workshop that will explore the science cases as well as selected and planned capabilities of the E-ELT in the field of exoplanets. The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum to synthesise a vision of the goals to be achieved by the E-ELT in the field of exoplanets, considering on the one hand the planned capabilities of the E-ELT and its instrumentation, and on the other hand, the most relevant issues in exoplanet science of the next decade.

 

Topics

  1. Initial Conditions, Evolving Disks and Forming Proto-Planets
  2. Planetary Populations through Detection Surveys
  3. Characterisation through Transit Spectroscopy
  4. Characterisation through Resolved Imaging and Spectrosopy
  5. The Search for Habitable Planets
  6. Synthesis: Towards a Vision for the E-ELT

 

Registration Period - 1 October - 15 November 2013
