摘要:
Exoplanet science has made remarkable progress. With advancements in high-resolution spectroscopy and the launch of JWST, the field has transitioned from detection to detailed atmospheric characterization.
The diversity of exoplanets presents intriguing puzzles that challenge our theoretical understanding.
In this talk, I will review progress in exoplanet research, with an emphasis on atmospheric characterization. I will highlight some recent JWST observations, including the first evidence of photochemistry on an exoplanet. I will present the enigmatic nature of intermediate-sized planets and share insights from our recent study on temperate sub-Neptunes. I will conclude with key open questions in exoplanet characterization that are within reach of upcoming capabilities.
