A Measurement of the Water Abundance in the Atmosphere of the Hot Jupiter WASP-43b with High-resolution Cross-correlation Spectroscopy
Dare Bartelt, Megan Weiner Mansfield, Michael R. Line +8
Measuring the abundances of carbon- and oxygen-bearing molecules has been a primary focus in studying the atmospheres of hot Jupiters, as doing so can help constrain the carbon-to-…
OrCAS: Origins, Compositions, and Atmospheres of Sub-neptunes. I. Survey Definition
Ian J. M. Crossfield, Alex S. Polanski, Paul Robertson +61
Sub-Neptunes - volatile-rich exoplanets smaller than Neptune - are intrinsically the most common type of planet known. However, the formation and nature of these objects, as well a…
Peering into the black box: forward-modeling the uncertainty budget of high-resolution spectroscopy of exoplanet atmospheres
Arjun B. Savel, Megan Bedell, Eliza M. -R. Kempton +6
Ground-based high-resolution cross-correlation spectroscopy (HRCCS; R >~ 15,000) is a powerful complement to space-based studies of exoplanet atmospheres. By resolving individual s…
The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South II -- WASP-121 b has super-stellar C/O and refractory-to-volatile ratios
Peter C. B. Smith, Jorge A. Sanchez, Michael R. Line +19
A primary goal of exoplanet science is to measure the atmospheric composition of gas giants in order to infer their formation and migration histories. Common diagnostics for planet…
Mass determination of two Jupiter-sized planets orbiting slightly evolved stars: TOI-2420 b and TOI-2485 b
Ilaria Carleo, Oscar Barrágan, Carina M. Persson +67
Hot and warm Jupiters might have undergone the same formation and evolution path, but the two populations exhibit different distributions of orbital parameters, challenging our und…
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…
Hydrogen sulfide and metal-enriched atmosphere for a Jupiter-mass exoplanet
Guangwei Fu, Luis Welbanks, Drake Deming +15
As the closest transiting hot Jupiter to Earth, HD 189733b has been the benchmark planet for atmospheric characterization. It has also been the anchor point for much of our theoret…
A new lever on exoplanetary B fields: measuring heavy ion velocities
Arjun B. Savel, Hayley Beltz, Thaddeus D. Komacek +2
Magnetic fields connect an array of planetary processes, from atmospheric escape to interior convection. Despite their importance, exoplanet magnetic fields are largely unconstrain…
The TESS-Keck Survey XX: 15 New TESS Planets and a Uniform RV Analysis of all Survey Targets
Alex S. Polanski, Jack Lubin, Corey beard +69
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has discovered hundreds of new worlds, with TESS planet candidates now outnumbering the total number of confirmed planets from $\te…
cortecs: A Python package for compressing opacities
Arjun B. Savel, Megan Bedell, Eliza M. -R. Kempton
The absorption and emission of light by exoplanet atmospheres encode details of atmospheric composition, temperature, and dynamics. Fundamentally, simulating these processes requir…
TOI-2266 b: a keystone super-Earth at the edge of the M dwarf radius valley
Hannu Parviainen, Felipe Murgas, Emma Esparza-Borges +59
We validate the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) object of interest TOI-2266.01 (TIC 348911) as a small transiting planet (most likely a super-Earth) orbiting a faint M…
Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP) I: Nine Newly Confirmed Hot Jupiters from the TESS Mission
Jack Schulte, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Allyson Bieryla +72
Hot Jupiters were many of the first exoplanets discovered in the 1990s, but in the decades since their discovery, the mysteries surrounding their origins remain. Here, we present n…
