Oral presentation

High-resolution spectroscopy (HRS) enables the unprecedented atmospheric characterization of transiting exoplanets. However, conducting these ground-based observations requires careful data processing and analysis to eliminate the Earth's atmospheric contribution and the signature from the background host star.

In this presentation, I will introduce the techniques currently employed by the...

2. An experimental simulation of the atmosphere of the temperate exoplanet K2-18b

Oral presentation

Observations made in recent years by the Kepler, Hubble, Spitzer and James Webb space telescopes have revealed the presence of an atmosphere around the temperate exoplanet K2-18b. According to the latest JWST observations, this H2-rich atmosphere contains significant proportions of carbon-bearing molecules such as CO2 and CH4. The detection of such molecules is extremely interesting in the...

9. A Glimpse into the Dark Ages: the JWST’s UNCOVER program and high-redshift Discoveries

Oral presentation

Over the past few years, the JWST has made some remarkable discoveries. The JWST UNCOVER program, which made observations through the lensing cluster A2744, has led to the discovery of 16 galaxy candidates at redshifts between 9 and 11, and three candidates in the range 11 < z < 13. Detailed studies of these candidates show a rapid evolution of the mass-luminosity relation and the UV continuum...

20. Tracing gaseous filaments connected to galaxy clusters: the case study of Abell 2744

Oral presentation

Due to their sizes and postions, at the nodes of the cosmic web, galaxy clusters are particularly suited to study the mechanisms of baryon accretion throughout the large scale structures of the Universe. Filaments connected to clusters are crucial environments in this process, where baryons heat and interact, while being funnelled towards the clusters’ deep gravitational potentials. Galaxy...
