Materials and processes that create solar systems and potentially habitable exoplanets; use of simple models to explore how exoplanets are found, and how the existence and surface condition of a planet are affected by stellar composition and luminosity, physics of orbits, gravity, magnetism, volcanism and tectonics Credits 3. 3 Lecture Hours.
