16. Have Radial Velocity Surveys Missed Any Planets?
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenSammanfattning : The project was aimed at numerically assessing exoplanetary systems to distinguish their capabilities of hosting additional planets. The shortcomings of the radial velocity method sometimes causes hindrance in the detection of terrestrial planets. LÄS MER
17. Detecting Earth-like exoplanets using high-dispersion nulling interferometry
Master-uppsats, KTH/Tillämpad fysikSammanfattning : The detection of Earth-like exoplanets and the characterization of their atmospheres is a challenge one needs to solve to assess their habitability and the presence of life in the universe. If this challenge is still unresolved today, even in the era of giant telescopes, it is mainly because of the very high contrast between these exoplanets and their host star and also their proximity.

18. Planning Observations of Terrestrial ExoplanetsAround M Type Stars with CRIRES+
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Observationell astrofysikSammanfattning : In recent decades, thousands of exoplanets have been discovered. The next step is to characterize theobserved planets in terms of their radii, masses, density, physical conditions and composition of theiratmospheres. LÄS MER
19. Advanced Characterization of Exoplanet Host Stars
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Observationell astrofysikSammanfattning : The spectroscopic determination of stellar properties is important for subsequent studies of exoplanet atmospheres. In this thesis, HARPS data for 6 exoplanet-hosting, late-type stars is processed to achieve an average signal-to-noise ratio of ~105. LÄS MER
20. High resolution imaging observations of exoplanet host stars
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisationSammanfattning : This is a thesis project, analysing data from high-resolution imaging observations, specifically speckle imaging, as a follow up study of exoplanet host stars observed with K2, the second operational phase of the space telescope Kepler. The project was accomplished at NASA Ames research center under the guidance of Rachel A. LÄS MER
