Transmission spectroscopy studies of exoplanet atmospheres

这项工作包括对系外行星大气光谱和光度研究网络（SPEARNET）收集的数据进行还原和分析。SPEARNET正在使用一个全球分布的光学和近红外设备网络来研究凌日系外行星的大气。SPEARNET的目标是开发工具和流程，通过多架望远镜对系外行星大气进行强有力的研究，并从使用可量化选择函数选择的行星样本中对热木星和海王星的大气进行统计研究。这个博士项目将涉及使用光谱学和光度学数据来构建目标系统的多波长透射光曲线，并对其进行建模和分析。

This work involves the reduction and analysis of data collected by the Spectroscopy and Photometry of Exoplanet Atmospheres Research Network (SPEARNET). SPEARNET is using a globally distributed network of optical and near-IR facilities to study the atmospheres of transiting exoplanets. The goal of SPEARNET is to develop tools and processes for the robust study of exoplanet atmospheres with multiple telescopes and to undertake statistical studies of the atmospheres of hot Jupiters and Neptunes from a sample of planets chosen with a quantifiable selection function. This PhD project will involve working with spectroscopy and photometric data to construct multi-wavelength transit lightcurves of our target systems, as well as to model and analyse them.
