Challenges in analyses of exo-atmospheres in the era of JWST and Ariel

Speaker: Quentin Changeat

Abstract: 

With the recent launch of the James Webb Space Telescope and with later space missions such as Ariel, the study of exoplanet atmospheres will be revolutionised. The complexity of interpreting exoplanet spectra, often tackled via atmospheric retrieval techniques, however, will increase and pose many new challenges. In this talk, a review of current analysis techniques as well as their potential evolution will be presented.
