Title: The opportunity of transiting planets
Date: Wednesday, December 11th, 2013
Time: 11:30
Venue: Villa Bazzoni
***********************************************************
Abstract Like binary stars play a fundamental role in the determination of stellar parameters, the transiting planets
are particularly valuable targets to determine the physical properties of the planets.
I will discuss how some of the projects in progress or in planning stage both from ground and from space
will contribute to the "exploration" of extrasolar planets and how they will allow us to place the Solar System
in the context of (exo-)planetary systems
