Abstract :
We now know that
exoplanets are common: essentially every star appears to have planets.
But we have very
little idea what these planets are like. The talk will discuss the current
status attempts
to characterise the atmospheric composition of exoplanets and future
prospects for
this activity plus efforts by my group to provide the rather extensive
laboratory data
required to model exoplanets and interpret their signatures.
