S. Haffert: “Observing the formation of planets and moons”

This event took place at Cultuur Café Leidse Lente in Leiden on October 27, 2025. S. Haffert: “Observing the formation of planets and moons” Dr. Sebastiaan Haffert got his PhD in 2019 from Leiden Observatory. He received a Hubble Fellowship from NASA to do research at the University of Arizona in the US where he worked for nearly five years before moving back to Leiden Observatory in 2024 where he now works as an Assistant Professor. His work focuses on the development of the next generation of telescopes and their high-tech instruments. One of the most powerful ways of characterizing exoplanets is through direct imaging. In this talk, Sebastiaan will show how direct imaging works and how astronomers use it to search for young baby planets and their moons. These observations are then used to get a better understanding of how planets form. The other speaker of the night was Y. Xin: “The three body problem and planet habitability”.
