Emily Rickman

    Science Operations Scientist

     

    Main Research Fields

    My main research interests involve direct imaging and characterisation of long period exoplanets and brown dwarfs:
     
    - Astrometry: Hipparcos and Gaia proper motion anomalies
    - Radial velocities of long period exoplanets and brown dwarfs
    - Direct imaging 
    - Emission spectroscopy
    - Atmospheric and spectral characterisation of ultra cool exoplanets and brown dwarf companions
    - Orbital monitoring
    - Searching for benchmark brown dwarfs
    - Combining radial velocities and imaging data to obtain model independent masses of long period companions
