Abstract:
In my presentation, I will give a short introduction to the science of extrasolar planets, in particular the technique of transit, eclipse and phasecurve spectro-photometry. I will describe my various projects in this emerging field using state-of-the-art spectroscopic and photometric instruments on the largest ground based telescopes, the "flying telescope" SOFIA (Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy) and the Kepler and Hubble space telescopes.
