A Panchromatic Characterization of the Evening and Morning Atmosphere of WASP-107 b: Composition and Cloud Variations, and Insight into the Effect of Stellar Contamination
Matthew M. Murphy, Thomas G. Beatty, Everett Schlawin +16
Limb-resolved transmission spectroscopy has the potential to transform our understanding of exoplanetary atmospheres. By separately measuring the transmission spectra of the evenin…
A Possible Metal-Dominated Atmosphere Below the Thick Aerosols of GJ 1214 b Suggested by its JWST Panchromatic Transmission Spectrum
Kazumasa Ohno, Everett Schlawin, Taylor J. Bell +9
GJ1214b is the archetype sub-Neptune for which thick aerosols have prevented us from constraining its atmospheric properties for over a decade. In this study, we leverage the panch…
Possible Carbon Dioxide Above the Thick Aerosols of GJ 1214 b
Everett Schlawin, Kazumasa Ohno, Taylor J. Bell +14
Sub-Neptune planets with radii smaller than Neptune (3.9 Re) are the most common type of planet known to exist in The Milky Way, even though they are absent in the Solar System. Th…
Multiple Clues for Dayside Aerosols and Temperature Gradients in WASP-69 b from a Panchromatic JWST Emission Spectrum
Everett Schlawin, Sagnick Mukherjee, Kazumasa Ohno +16
WASP-69 b is a hot, inflated, Saturn-mass planet 0.26 Mjup with a zero-albedo equilibrium temperature of 963 K. Here, we report the JWST 2 to 12 um emission spectrum of the planet…
Sulfur Dioxide and Other Molecular Species in the Atmosphere of the Sub-Neptune GJ 3470 b
Thomas G. Beatty, Luis Welbanks, Everett Schlawin +13
We report observations of the atmospheric transmission spectrum of the sub-Neptune exoplanet GJ 3470 b taken using the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on JWST. Combined with two arch…
A High Internal Heat Flux and Large Core in a Warm Neptune Exoplanet
Luis Welbanks, Taylor J. Bell, Thomas G. Beatty +16
Interactions between exoplanetary atmospheres and internal properties have long been hypothesized to be drivers of the inflation mechanisms of gaseous planets and apparent atmosphe…
