講義の概要とねらい
This course will consist of a series of lectures that touches upon fundamental principles and problems in planetary science.
到達目標
To make the students aware of the diversity of studies that can be done in planetary sciences and to inspire the students to
think about how to combine many aspects into one coherent picture of planet formation and evolution.
キーワード
Cosmochemistry, planet formation, planetary evolution, habitability

授業計画・課題
| 授業計画 | 課題 | |
|---|---|---|
| 第1回 | Overview of existing problems in planetary science. | This is an introductory class where I lay the foundation of things to come and explain some basic concepts. |
| 第2回 | Relationship between dynamics and cosmochemistry. | Here I explain how understanding planet formation relies on data from cosmochemistry, and how the lack of samples severely limits what we can learn from exoplanets. It features a short intro to cosmochemistry. |
| 第3回 | Exoplanet formation | This class would consist of an overview of terrestrial planet formation and the stages through which this proceeds and how to test models from the meteorite data. |
| 第4回 | Planetary spins | In this class I will discuss the precession and nutation of planetary spins and introduce the chaotic obliquity variations of Mars. The effect of the spins on climate, such as repeated ice ages on the Earth caused by the Milankovic, will also be mentioned. |
| 第5回 | Tides | This class would introduce the students to tidal evolution in planets, mostly focused on rocky planets. The rotation rate and obliquity evolution are discussed as well, as well as a focus on Saturn's moon Enceladus. |
| 第6回 | Exoplanet radius distribution | In this class I will discuss the observed radius distribution of small exoplanets and how this is shaped by photoevaporation and what this tells us about their formation. |
| 第7回 | Discussion | This lecture is reserved for discussion of a topic that the students find interesting, and for discussion about projects. I will also touch on proposal writing for future endeavours. |
教科書
Planetary Sciences (de Pater & Lissauer), Lecture notes in Planetary Sciences (Armitage). These are only for reference.
参考書、講義資料等
Will be made available during each class. Will consist of powerpoint slides and archive files with relevant literature.
