Know Thy Star Know Thy Planet 2 Conference
This is a reminder that regular in-person registration for “Know Thy Star Know Thy Planet 2” closes Friday, January 17th. The conference dinner add-on closes Sunday, January 5th.
In 2017, the “Know Thy Star, Know Thy Planet” conference held in Pasadena, CA focused on understanding how stars affected our ability to discover and do initial characterization of exoplanets.
Over the past seven years since that conference, the limits of exoplanet discovery and the field of exoplanet characterization have changed dramatically, with great strides made in the community to understand and account for, at any even more precise and complex levels, the characteristics and effects of the stellar hosts.
This conference will focus on the ways that stars both enable and limit our ability to determine planetary masses, orbits, bulk compositions, and atmospheric abundances, as well as the state-of-the-art knowledge and techniques that have been developed to characterize and mitigate stellar effects. By Knowing thy Star, we can better Know Thy Planet!
The conference will be held on the Caltech Campus in Pasadena, California, the week of February 3rd-7th, 2025. The preliminary agenda can be found here.
