Venue

The Observatoire de Haute Provence is located in Southern France, near the village of Saint Michel l’Observatoire. It is place of discovery of 51 Peg b --an achievement that earned Mayor & Queloz the Nobel prize in Physics in 2019-- and of the co-discovery of Gl876 b, the first planet detected around an M-dwarf star. The 193-cm telescope is now equipped with the SOPHIE spectrograph, which produces a steady contribution to exoplanet studies.

Up to 80 participants are expected. Accommodation will be provided inside and close to the Observatory for the duration of the Colloquium.

Students and post-docs are particularly encouraged to register and contribute their work. Limited financial support to cover travel and lodging expenses will be available for students/young researchers that submit abstract.
