SUMMARY:Where Skies Meet: Multidisciplinary Views of Planet and Exoplanet Atmospheres
DESCRIPTION:The IAA-CSIC Severo Ochoa Advanced School “Where skies meet: multidisciplinary views of planet and exoplanet atmospheres” is designed for researchers interested in the study of planetary atmospheres both in the Solar System and in exoplanets\, aiming to bridge the two communities. The school will provide an up-to-date perspective on the latest developments in the study of Solar System atmospheres and in the emerging field of exoplanetary atmospheres\, reflecting the rapid evolution of planetary science. While researchers at all career stages are welcome\, preference will be given to early-stage researchers (PhD researchers and early postdocs).The topics covered by the school include planetary formation\, planetary interior and its link with the atmosphere\, atmospheric modeling\, observational techniques\, radiative transfer and retrieval schemes\, as well as 1-day Workshop on potential Venus-analogue exoplanets. In addition to topical lectures going beyond textbook knowledge\, the school will also schedule hands-on sessions focused on the practical use of  state-of-the-art tools in the field given by their developers\, promoting interaction between lecturers and participants. Given the strongly interactive nature of the school\, only in-person attendance will be possible.

SUMMARY:Rocky Worlds DDT Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us at STScI for the Rocky Worlds DDT Workshop Data Challenge Results & Rocky Worlds DDT Science\, a community gathering focused on the science enabled by the Rocky Worlds Director’s Discretionary Time (DDT) program\, with particular emphasis on its JWST/MIRI observations. The workshop will serve as the culmination of the Rocky Worlds DDT Data Challenge\, bringing participants together to compare analysis methods and discuss the results and their scientific implications. A key component will be the unveiling of the underlying data-generating process\, enabling a direct and meaningful comparison across approaches. \nBeyond benchmarking methods\, the workshop is designed to spark broader conversations about the scientific interpretation of Rocky Worlds DDT data: how to understand differences between analyses\, what level of agreement is needed for robust conclusions\, and what these results imply for our understanding of rocky exoplanets. In addition to sessions centered on the Data Challenge (including a hackathon-style component)\, the program will include contributed talks and posters showcasing Rocky Worlds–related science\, from data analysis and modeling to predictions and follow-up efforts. The goal is to use the Data Challenge as a springboard for collaboration and to shape the next phase of Rocky Worlds science.

SUMMARY:Rogue Worlds 3
DESCRIPTION:Free-floating\, or “rogue”\, planetary-mass objects have been discovered wandering through the Galaxy unbound to any star. The origins of these objects remain poorly understood\, and likely involve a combination of many different processes relevant to star and planet formation. \nDirect imaging surveys of young star-forming regions continue to find hundreds of high-mass rogue planets\, though it remains an ongoing theoretical challenge to determine what fraction represent ejected planets as opposed to aborted stellar embryos. Meanwhile\, upcoming space-based microlensing programs\, such as the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope\, are poised to vastly increase our sample of free-floating planets at masses extending to Earth-mass and below\, opening a new window into their origin and demographics. \nFollowing the success of previous workshops\, Rogue Worlds 3 is a 4-day workshop designed to bring together researchers at the forefront of different aspects of the study of free-floating planets. Key focal areas include: \n– Microlensing: Ground- and space-based detections\, demographics\, and mass functions.\n– Direct Imaging: Observational breakthroughs\, characterization of young planetary-mass objects\, and atmospheric modeling.\n– Dynamics: Modeling planetary ejection mechanisms\, stellar cluster dynamics\, and the fate of outer planetary systems.\n– Moons Orbiting Rogue Worlds: Theoretical constraints\, formation mechanics\, and potential detection channels for exomoons bound to free-floating hosts.
