The era of small exoplanets: The need for a multi-disciplinary approach 


Dr. Kaustubh Hakim * 

Institute of Astronomy (KU Leuven) and the Royal Observatory of Belgium 




Abstract: The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has made it possible to characterise the atmospheres of small exoplanets. Rocky planets and sub-Neptunes comprise more than 90% of planets in the galaxy. Because almost all of the planetary mass of small exoplanets lies in their rocky interiors, the knowledge of interior composition is key. However, atmospheric characterisation efforts by the JWST cannot yet resolve the composition of deeper layers. In this talk, I will showcase the need for laboratory experiments to understand the composition of small exoplanets. I will also show how newer models of interior-atmosphere coupling can guide interpretation of atmospheric composition. I will also highlight how currently active and upcoming space and ground-based telescopes, including PLATO, Ariel, ELT, and MARVEL, enable the holistic understanding of these exoplanets.
