SAM
stellar activity modelling for exoplanet detection
Welcome
This website documents the SAM project.
SAM is dedicated to the search for Earth-like exoplanets, by tackling the challenge of stellar magnetic activity. We are focusing on the the radial velocity (RV) technique, using data from the ESPRESSO spectrograph at ESO's Paranal observatory.
