Improved Constraints on the Surface of LHS 3844 b from its Mid-Infrared Spectrum
Kimberly Paragas, Heather A. Knutson, Renyu Hu +4
The thermal emission spectra of terrestrial exoplanets provide a window into their surface compositions and corresponding geological processes. Close-in, rocky planets orbiting M d…
The First Hubble Detection of a Secondary Eclipse from a Rocky Exoplanet: the 5.4-hour planet TOI-2431 b
Sebastian Zieba, Billy Edwards, Samuel N. Quinn +18
We present an HST/WFC3 G141 phase-curve observation of the ultra-short-period rocky planet TOI-2431 b and detect its secondary eclipse in the near infrared. Combined with the TESS…
Thermal Evolution of Lava Planets Across System Ages: Predictions for Hell of a Survey
Mariana Sastre, Tim Lichtenberg, Lisa Dang +22
Ultra-short-period (USP) rocky exoplanets can have dayside temperatures high enough to maintain permanent magma oceans, sitting at the intersection of interior geophysics and atmos…
The Hill sphere transits of Beta Pictoris c and the search for another 1981-like event
V. E. C. Bakker, M. A. Kenworthy, R. Stuik +17
Beta Pictoris is a young and nearby planetary system hosting an edge-on debris disk and at least three gas-giant planets. Their circumplanetary environments could host exomoons and…
The dark and featureless surface of rocky exoplanet LHS 3844 b from JWST mid-infrared spectroscopy
Sebastian Zieba, Laura Kreidberg, Brandon P. Coy +13
JWST has opened a new era in the study of rocky exoplanets, enabling direct characterization of their surfaces with mid-infrared spectroscopy. Different types of rock have distinct…
Sensitivity of Dry Lava Planet Atmospheric Emission Spectra to Changes in Lava Compositions
Christiaan P. A. van Buchem, Rojita Buddhacharya, Mantas Zilinskas +3
The atmospheres of hot rocky exoplanets are among the first primary targets of the JWST. Interpreting their atmospheric spectra requires understanding the link between silicate lav…
