EXOPLANETS-A

European collaboration focused on the study of exoplanet spectra, and in particular on the optimisation of those produced by observations with space telescopes such as HST, Spitzer and JWST.

The Exoplanet Atmosphere New Emission Transmission Spectra Analysis (Exoplanets-A) collaboration is led by the CEA, a leading centre in France. CAB’s contribution focuses on the characterisation of the central star and data visualisation tools. Funded by the European Union under the H2020-COMPET-2017-RIA- 776403 programme, its main objective is to provide European researchers with a series of techniques that allow them to study the properties and evolution of exoatmospheres in greater depth.
