Matthew Kenworthy

Associate Professor at Leiden Observatory

My research covers the search and characterisation of extrasolar planets by direct imaging, and developing optical instrumentation to help find them. In the past few years I have been searching for circumplanetary disks and rings by looking for the shadows they cast as they pass between us and their parent stars.
