Connecting the Dots: Investigating Planet Formation and Composition Through Observations of Carbon and Oxygen Species in Stars, Disks, and Planets
What physical processes and sources of material contribute to exoplanet compositions? Specifically, what roles do the protoplanetary disk composition and structure, and host star abundances play in the different stages of planet formation? In this thesis, beginning with a brief literature review in...
