James Lloyd is a Professor of Astronomy at Cornell University, specializing in Astronomy, Extrasolar Planets, Exoplanets, Astronomical Instrumentation, and Astronomy & Astrophysics. His research focuses on characterizing exoplanet host stars, particularly M dwarfs, through spectral analysis and metallicity studies. He investigates the properties of cool exoplanets, such as their effective temperatures, metallicities, and masses, using advanced observational techniques. Lloyd also explores brown dwarf companions and substellar objects, contributing to the understanding of planetary systems and their formation. His work includes the development and application of astronomical instrumentation for high-precision observations, such as those conducted with the James Webb Space Telescope.
