Researchers from LMU, the ORIGINS Excellence Cluster, the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, and the ORIGINS Data Science Lab have achieved a breakthrough in analyzing exoplanet atmospheres. By utilizing physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), they modeled complex light scattering in exoplanet atmospheres with unprecedented precision. This advancement enhances the understanding of atmospheric properties, particularly the effects of clouds on distant worlds.
The study highlights the importance of accurate atmospheric models, especially in light of new observations from the James Webb Space Telescope. The researchers trained two neural networks, one focusing on light scattering and the other on Rayleigh scattering, achieving impressive accuracy. This interdisciplinary collaboration not only propels exoplanet research forward but also paves the way for future AI applications in physics.
