With the discovery of planets beyond our solar system 25 years ago,
exoplanet research has expanded dramatically, with new
state-of-the-art ground-based and space-based missions dedicated to
their discovery and characterisation. With more than 3,500
exoplanets now known, the complexity of the discovery techniques,
observations and physical characterisation have grown
exponentially. This Handbook ties all these avenues of research
together across a broad range of exoplanet science. Planet
formation, exoplanet interiors and atmospheres, and habitability
are discussed, providing in-depth coverage of our knowledge to
date. Comprehensively updated from the first edition, it includes
instrumental and observational developments, in-depth treatment of
the new Kepler mission results and hot Jupiter atmospheric studies,
and major updates on models of exoplanet formation. With extensive
references to the research literature and appendices covering all
individual exoplanet discoveries, it is a valuable reference to
this exciting field for both incoming and established researchers.
