Information - AO1 Atmospheres of Gas and Ice Giants: from Solar System to Exoplanets
Event Information
The session will focus on the observations and theoretical modelling of the atmospheres of solar system gas (Jupiter, Saturn) and ice giants (Neptune, Uranus) and will build a bridge to the atmospheres expected on extra-solar planets of these types. Especially after the successful launch of CoRoT in December 27, 2006, transiting sub-giant planets, so-called hot Neptune’s will be observed and questions have to be solved if the atmospheres of these planets may be different compared to solar system ice-giants.
