Astronomy Colloquium - David Martin

Kepler 453 Circumbinary Planet
September 17, 2020
3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
ONLINE: Zoom Webinar

Kepler's hidden treasure: circumbinary super-Earths

Super-Earths are very common, but understanding their formation is a challenge. Binary stars are very common, but finding planets around them is more difficult. I will share my work developing new methods to tackle both of these challenges in the search for circumbinary super-Earths, and discuss the broad applications of this small niche of astrophysics.

Speaker: Dr. David Martin, OSU Astronomy; Buckeye Prize and Sagan Fellow
