Focusing on advanced astronomical studies, this book delves into the detection and characterization of exomoons and exoplanets. It details the atmospheric analysis of the hot Neptune GJ3470b, showcasing improved measurements of Rayleigh scattering and limits on planetary companions. Additionally, it explores how transit timing and duration variations can confirm exomoons in Kepler-like satellites. Finally, it introduces a sophisticated Galactic microlensing simulator, which has been made publicly available for comparison with extensive microlensing event data.
