HOLMES : 2007-2011

Hunting cOol Low Mass Extrasolar planetS

Our primary objective is the discovery of low mass planets (1 – 15 Earth masses) within 1 – 5 AU of the most common stars in our Galaxy by microlensing effects in order to measure their frequency. As a secondary objective we will do detailed studies of known planetary systems (including probing their atmospheres during planetary transits) and estimate their physical properties.
