Scientists at Lund University in Sweden have found the rare metal terbium for the first time in the atmosphere of an exoplanet, following developing a new method for analyzing exoplanets.

A new study, published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics, reveals discoveries regarding the strange, extremely hot atmosphere.

“We have developed a new method that makes it possible to obtain more detailed information,” says Nicholas Borsato, a doctoral student in astrophysics at Lund University.

Using it, we have discovered seven elements, including the rare substance terbium.”
