HST/WFC3 Light Curve Supports a Terrestrial Composition for the Closest Exoplanet to Transit an M Dwarf
Emily K Pass, Jennifer G Winters, David Charbonneau +6
Previous studies of the exoplanet LTT 1445Ac concluded that the light curve from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) was consistent with both grazing and non-grazing g…
A Shallow Water Model Exploration of Atmospheric Circulation on Sub-Neptunes: Effects of Radiative Forcing and Rotation Period
Ekaterina Landgren, Alice Nadeau, Nikole Lewis +2
Sub-Neptune type exoplanets are abundant in our galaxy yet have no solar system analogs. They exist in a broad range of stellar forcing and rotational regimes that are distinctly d…
The Climate and Compositional Variation of the Highly Eccentric Planet HD 80606 b -- the rise and fall of carbon monoxide and elemental sulfur
Shang-Min Tsai, Maria Steinrueck, Vivien Parmentier +2
The gas giant HD 80606 b has a highly eccentric orbit (e 0.93). The variation due to the rapid shift of stellar irradiation provides a unique opportunity to probe the physic…
A New Analysis of 8 Spitzer Phase Curves and Hot Jupiter Population Trends: Qatar-1b, Qatar-2b, WASP-52b, WASP-34b, and WASP-140b
Erin May, Kevin Stevenson, Jacob Bean +16
With over 30 phase curves observed during the warm Spitzer mission, the complete data set provides a wealth of information relating to trends and three-dimensional properties of ho…
Diurnal variations in the stratosphere of the ultrahot giant exoplanet WASP-121b
Thomas Mikal-Evans, David K. Sing, Joanna K. Barstow +9
The temperature profile of a planetary atmosphere is a key diagnostic of radiative and dynamical processes governing the absorption, redistribution, and emission of energy. Observa…
A comprehensive revisit of select Galileo/NIMS observations of Europa
Ishan Mishra, Nikole Lewis, Jonathan Lunine +4
The Galileo Near Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (NIMS) collected spectra of Europa in the 0.7-5.2 m wavelength region, which have been critical to improving our understanding of…
Spitzer phase curve observations and circulation models of the inflated ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-76b
Erin M. May, Thaddeus D. Komacek, Kevin B. Stevenson +15
The large radii of many hot Jupiters can only be matched by models that have hot interior adiabats, and recent theoretical work has shown that the interior evolution of hot Jupiter…
The Need for Laboratory Measurements and Ab Initio Studies to Aid Understanding of Exoplanetary Atmospheres
Jonathan J. Fortney, Tyler D. Robinson, Shawn Domagal-Goldman +85
We are now on a clear trajectory for improvements in exoplanet observations that will revolutionize our ability to characterize their atmospheric structure, composition, and circul…
A Semi-Analytical Model of Visible-Wavelength Phase Curves of Exoplanets and Applications to Kepler-7 b and Kepler-10 b
Renyu Hu, Brice-Olivier Demory, Sara Seager +2
Kepler has detected numerous exoplanet transits by precise measurements of stellar light in a single visible-wavelength band. In addition to detection, the precise photometry provi…
Atmospheric Characterization of the Hot Jupiter Kepler-13Ab
Avi Shporer, Joseph G. O'Rourke, Heather A. Knutson +12
Kepler-13Ab (= KOI-13.01) is a unique transiting hot Jupiter. It is one of very few known short-period planets orbiting a hot A-type star, making it one of the hottest planets curr…
