Beyond Equilibrium Temperature: How the Atmosphere/Interior Connection Affects the Onset of Methane, Ammonia, and Clouds in Warm Transiting Giant Planets
Jonathan J. Fortney, Channon Visscher, Mark S. Marley +5
The atmospheric pressure-temperature profiles for transiting giant planets cross a range of chemical transitions. Here we show that the particular shape of these irradiated profile…
A transition between the hot and the ultra-hot Jupiter atmospheres
Claire Baxter, Jean-Michel Désert, Vivien Parmentier +6
[Abridged] A key hypothesis in the field of exoplanet atmospheres is the trend of atmospheric thermal structure with planetary equilibrium temperature. We explore this trend and re…
2D Retrieval Frameworks for Hot Jupiter Phase Curves
Y. Katherina Feng, Michael R. Line, Jonathan J. Fortney
Spectroscopic phase curves provide unique access to the three-dimensional properties of transiting exoplanet atmospheres. However, a modeling framework must be developed to deliver…
Exocomets from a Solar System Perspective
Paul A. Strøm, Dennis Bodewits, Matthew M. Knight +24
Exocomets are small bodies releasing gas and dust which orbit stars other than the Sun. Their existence was first inferred from the detection of variable absorption features in ste…
The Dynamic Proto-atmospheres around Low-Mass Planets with Eccentric Orbits
Chuhong Mai, Steven J. Desch, Rolf Kuiper +2
Protoplanets are able to accrete primordial atmospheres when embedded in the gaseous protoplanetary disk. The formation and structure of the proto-atmosphere are subject to the pla…
A Volatile-Poor Formation of LHS 3844b based on its Lack of Significant Atmosphere
Stephen R. Kane, Rachael M. Roettenbacher, Cayman T. Unterborn +2
Exoplanet discoveries have reached into the realm of terrestrial planets that are becoming the subject of atmospheric studies. One such discovery is LHS 3844b, a 1.3 Earth radius p…
