Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The book describes the Kepler Mission and its detection methods, providing the reader with a fundamental background from which to explore Kepler datasets independently. The book then outlines student research projects using the mission's data that can conducted independently or guided by a course leader. These projects cover various aspects of Kepler data, including habitable zones, planetary temperatures, and the densities of different planetary types, Super-Earths, and Mini-Neptunes. Excel templates for each project are accessible alongside the book with selected data for students to analyse, and detailed instruction is provided to ensure self-sufficiency and independence. The projects are designed to teach students to consider the caveats of their findings throughout the work, placing their findings in a greater context. Key Features: - Provides instructional material and datasets for independent student projects - Acts as a guide for course leaders looking to introduce students to Kepler data and how to analyse planetary habitability parameters - Provides excel templates and custom datasets for self-contained research projects - Covers the background of the Kepler Mission necessary for independent student projects - Summarises Kepler findings and offers an outlook to other missions continuing Kepler's legacy.…
