A High Geometric Albedo for LTT9779b Points Towards a Metal-rich Atmosphere and Silicate Clouds

Suman Saha, James S. Jenkins, Vivien Parmentier +7

Aims: In this work, we aim to confirm the high albedo of the benchmark ultrahot Neptune LTT9779b using 20 secondary eclipse measurements of the planet observed with CHEOPS. In addi…

A Terminology and Quantitative Framework for Assessing the Habitability of Solar System and Extraterrestrial Worlds

Daniel Apai, Rory Barnes, Matthew M. Murphy +13

The search for extraterrestrial life in the Solar System and beyond is a key science driver in astrobiology, planetary science, and astrophysics. A critical step is the identificat…

Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE). XIV. Finding terrestrial protoplanets in the galactic neighborhood

Lorenzo Cesario, Tim Lichtenberg, Eleonora Alei +62

The increased brightness temperature of young rocky protoplanets during their magma ocean epoch makes them potentially amenable to atmospheric characterization to distances from th…

The Dustiest Galactic S Stars: Mid-Infrared Spectra from SOFIA/FORCAST

Kathleen E. Kraemer, G. C. Sloan, Ramses M. Ramirez

We present spectra of 12 of the reddest, and hence dustiest, S stars in the Milky Way, observed with the FORCAST grisms on SOFIA. S stars are asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars wi…

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…

Infrared spectral properties of M giants

G. C. Sloan, C. Goes, R. M. Ramirez +2

We observed a sample of 20 M giants with the Infrared Spectrograph on the Spitzer Space Telescope. Most show absorption structure at 6.6-6.8 um which we identify as water vapor, an…
