Helium escaping from the atmosphere of a nearby rocky exoplanet orbiting in a habitable zone

Collin Cherubim, Shreyas Vissapragada, Tim Cunningham +13

The study reports the detection of helium escaping from the atmosphere of the rocky exoplanet LHS 1140b using near‑infrared transit spectroscopy, showing time‑variable escape and s…

Climates of temperate rocky planets with He-dominated atmospheres

Viviane Kuss, Robin Wordsworth, Collin Cherubim +1

We present radiative-convective modeling of rocky exoplanets with -dominated atmospheres and low envelope mass fractions. Helium has a steeper adiabatic temperature profile tha…

Nautilus Space Observatory: Unveiling the Diversity and Origin of Sub-Neptunes with the Nautilus Space Observatory

Luis Welbanks, Kylie E. Hall, Julien de Wit +10

Sub-Neptunes are the most common class of planets in the Galaxy, yet they have no Solar System analog and remain poorly understood as a population. JWST observations have revealed…

Nautilus Space Observatory: The Evolution of Planets and their Atmospheres

Ilaria Pascucci, Noah Tuchow, Yifan Zhou +11

We are just beginning to explore the billion-year evolution from nascent planets in disks to mature planetary systems. Recent discoveries hint at demographic and atmospheric differ…

Analytic Modeling of Tidally Locked Rocky Planet Atmospheres Across Dynamical Regimes

Christopher P. Wirth, Diana Powell, Robin Wordsworth

We present a new first-principles analytic approach to interpreting eclipses and phase curves of rocky planets. Observations with JWST have reported nondetections of atmospheres ar…

Characterizing the Radiative-Convective Structure of Dense Rocky Planet Atmospheres

Jessica Cmiel, Robin Wordsworth, Jacob T. Seeley

We use a one-dimensional line-by-line radiative-convective model to simulate hot, dense terrestrial-planet atmospheres. We find that strong shortwave absorption by H2O and CO2 inhi…
