My main field of research is detecting and characterizing exoplanets via high-contrast imaging. My latest work focuses on the effect of multiplicity on planet formation, the accretion of protoplanets, and the close environment of protostars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Projects<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>I work mainly on planet formation. This comprehends the study and characterization of exoplanets via high-contrast imaging, the study of their close surroundings (satellites and\/or disks), and the analysis of protostars and protoplanetary disks. The common objective of all these projects is to investigate how and where planets form and evolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highlights<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Director of the <a href=\"https:\/\/youngexoplanets.github.io\/index-es.html\">YEMS Nucleo Milenio<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Publications<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ui.adsabs.harvard.edu\/user\/libraries\/naojtLMSTDKLn-k-Br2w6Q\"><strong>NASA ADS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extracurricular activities<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Scuba diving<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact me<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>alice.zurlo@mail.udp.cl<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Full Professor and Director of YEMS, whose main research revolves around detecting and characterizing exoplanets with high-contrast imaging.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8425,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":""},"researcher-category":[252],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/researcher\/1219"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/researcher"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/researcher"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/researcher\/1219\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8733,"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/researcher\/1219\/revisions\/8733"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8425"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"researcher-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astronomia.udp.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/researcher-category?post=1219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
