Optical transmission spectrum of HAT-P-47b: evidence for aerosols and tentative TiO absorption

Wan-Hao Wang, Guo Chen, Fei Yan +5

Transmission spectroscopy enables the characterization of exoplanet atmospheres by probing absorption features in their terminator regions. In the optical, it is particularly sensi…

The Neptunian ridge planet WASP-156 b does not have a polar orbit

M. Lafarga, J. I. Espinoza-Retamal, H. M. Cegla +26

The population of short-period exo-Neptunes is thought to be shaped by an interplay between different dynamical mechanisms, such as orbital migration and tidal effects, and photoev…

Doomed Worlds II: Reassessing Suggestions of Orbital Decay for TrES-5 b

Marvin Rothmeier, Elisabeth R. Adams, Karsten Schindler +9

TrES-5b is one of only three ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) with suggestions of a possibly decreasing orbital period that have persisted through multiple independent analyses (G. Maciej…

Horizontal and vertical exoplanet thermal structure from a JWST spectroscopic eclipse map

Ryan C. Challener, Megan Weiner Mansfield, Patricio E. Cubillos +33

Highly-irradiated giant exoplanets known as "ultra-hot Jupiters" are anticipated to exhibit large variations of atmospheric temperature and chemistry as a function of longitude, la…

A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b

A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77

Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…

Inhomogeneous terminators on the exoplanet WASP-39 b

Néstor Espinoza, Maria E. Steinrueck, James Kirk +40

Transmission spectroscopy has been a workhorse technique over the past two decades to constrain the physical and chemical properties of exoplanet atmospheres. One of its classical…

Sulphur dioxide in the mid-infrared transmission spectrum of WASP-39b

Diana Powell, Adina D. Feinstein, Elspeth K. H. Lee +70

The recent inference of sulphur dioxide (SO) in the atmosphere of the hot (1100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations suggests that phot…

Nightside clouds and disequilibrium chemistry on the hot Jupiter WASP-43b

Taylor J. Bell, Nicolas Crouzet, Patricio E. Cubillos +80

Hot Jupiters are among the best-studied exoplanets, but it is still poorly understood how their chemical composition and cloud properties vary with longitude. Theoretical models pr…

A giant exoplanet orbiting a very low-mass star challenges planet formation models

J. C. Morales, A. J. Mustill, I. Ribas +179

Statistical analyses from exoplanet surveys around low-mass stars indicate that super-Earth and Neptune-mass planets are more frequent than gas giants around such stars, in agreeme…

The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs: High-resolution optical and near-infrared spectroscopy of 324 survey stars

A. Reiners, M. Zechmeister, J. A. Caballero +170

The CARMENES radial velocity (RV) survey is observing 324 M dwarfs to search for any orbiting planets. In this paper, we present the survey sample by publishing one CARMENES spectr…
