Explore groundbreaking research on molten rocky exoplanets in this 35-minute webinar featuring communications specialist Beth Johnson and Dr. Charles-Édouard Boukaré from York University. Discover how these extreme worlds, with surface temperatures so high that their crusts exist as oceans of magma, are revolutionizing our understanding of planetary formation and evolution. Learn about the physics governing molten mantles, the atmospheric characteristics of these fiery planets, and how advanced telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope are revealing new insights about their compositions. Examine findings from an international study led by York University that illuminates the diversity of planetary systems beyond our solar system and what these extreme environments teach us about the broader processes of planet formation. Participate in a live Q&A session to deepen your understanding of this cutting-edge geophysics and planetary science research that's reshaping exoplanet studies.
