Below, I have gathered a list of links of websites and articles that may be useful to any aspiring exoplanetary science student.
- To find research articles: arxiv.org and NASA ADS
- How to become a GOOD Theoretical Physicist:
Webpage by Physics Nobel laureate Prof. Gerard ’t Hooft; this page contains a step-by-step way to learn physics by our own. This page also have some good references (mostly free) on various topics in physics.
- Prof. Sean Carroll's blog: Prof. Carroll is a professor of physics at CalTech, and his research interests ranges from general relativity, quantum mechanics to philosophy. On this blog, one can find some interesting articles, on physics and philosophy, written by him.
- DACE: DACE, which stands for Data & Analysis Center for Exoplanets, is an online platform developed by the University of Geneva to analyse data of exoplanets. Many of its functionalities are open source, so one can not only access to the observational data of exoplanets but also analyse them.
- NASA Exoplanet Archive is an online database of various properties of exoplanets. It contains cutting edge planetary and stellar parameters of every known exoplanets.
- Image archives of ESA/Hubble and ESO has some very interesting images of astronomical bodies captured from these world-class telescopes.
- Two advices (Advice 1 and Advice 2) by Prof. Katja Poppenhaeger on how to get a faculty position in astrophysics. Yes, it is about faculty positions, but it has some very interesting points which can be helpful in preparing a PhD application as well.
- The articles (Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3) that I wrote on how did I get a PhD position (based on my experience) can be helpful in preparing a PhD application.
- Slidesgo is a good place to find a template for your next academic presentation.
- Coursera and Edx are go-to websites for free online courses from the institutes worldwide. They contain courses on the subjects ranging from astronomy to zoology. Another good place to look for online courses is MIT OpenCourseWare
- Quanta Megazine is, as its website says, an independent online publication launched by Simon Foundation to enhance public understanding of scince. It is a good place to read high quality scientific articles on physics, mathematics, biology and computer science.
- Astrobites is a kind of daily blog written by graduate students focusing on astrophysics research papers.
- A list of Physics books
- Feynman's lectures on Physics
