| Name: Joe Ninan Affiliation: Tata Institutue of Fundamental Research Conference ID: ASI2023_809 Title : Evaporating Exoplanets Authors and Co-Authors : Joe Ninan Abstract Type : Invited Abstract Category : Plenary Abstract : Since the first exoplanet discovery exactly 30 years ago, we have now discovered over 5000 exoplanets. While discovery of an exact Earth like planet around a Sun like star still eludes us, we have made significant progress in characterizing and understanding the Zootopia of planets. In this Plenary talk, I shall give an overview of where the community stands in search for Earth like planets around Sun like stars, our attempts to understand various planets and their atmospheres. Towards the end, I shall also talk about some recent exciting observational developments in detecting evaporating Exoplanet atmospheres and their implications on understanding the demographics and time evolution of exoplanets. |
