About us
The Center was founded to clarify the formation and evolution processes of planetary systems including the solar system. We clarify the physical and chemical properties of diverse exoplanets with astronomical observations, as well as developing new techniques for exoplanetary observations. With the global observation network of ground-based optical telescopes, we promote coordinated observations with space telescopes and high-precision Doppler spectroscopic observations. Through these activities, the Center will contribute to the development of astronomy and also will widen our view of the universe.
Greeting
Since the discovery of the first exoplanet in 1995, more than 5000 exoplanets have been found by planet hunters around the world. What kinds of planets are there in the universe? How do they form and evolve? Is the solar system special? Are there any planets like Earth? – to answer these questions is our goal.
We have been pursuing theoretical and observational researches on exoplanets for years at Tokyo tech. We vigorously pursue these researches more than ever by establishing the Exoplanet Observation Research Center. Look forward to our new research results.
