WINERED Detects a Strong Atmospheric Outflow on the Sub-Neptune GJ 3090b
Shreyas Vissapragada, Zifan Lin, Annabella Meech +12
Sub-Neptunes are the most common short-period ( d) planets known. A major goal for the field is to build a comprehensive understanding of their compositions and evolutionary…
Evolutionary pathways toward survival of a thick CO2- or SO2-rich atmosphere on the lava world TOI-561 b
Emma Postolec, Tim Lichtenberg, Johanna K. Teske +10
Rocky planets evolve through the exchange of volatiles between their interiors and atmospheres, an interplay still poorly constrained by observations. Remarkably, highly irradiated…
A Highly Reflective Atmosphere on the Lava World TOI-561b Revealed by JWST/NIRSpec Phase Curve
Samuel Boucher, Lisa Dang, Alex McGinty +15
Ultra-short period (USP) rocky planets are expected to be depleted of any substantial gaseous envelope due to the intense irradiation they receive from their host star, making the…
Helium escaping from the atmosphere of a nearby rocky exoplanet orbiting in a habitable zone
Collin Cherubim, Shreyas Vissapragada, Tim Cunningham +13
Observations of highly irradiated gas giant exoplanets have shown helium escaping from their atmospheres. There is limited evidence for atmospheres on rocky exoplanets, perhaps bec…
Spin-Orbit Geometry of AU Mic b and c from Back-to-Back Transits Observed Contemporaneously with Magellan PFS, LCOGT, and CHEOPS
Zitao Lin, Gyula M. Szabó, Krzysztof Sz. Zieliński +37
Young planets offer a unique window into the early stages of planetary evolution. AU Mic is one of the nearest (9.8 pc) pre-main sequence stars (~20 Myr), hosting two transiting Ne…
Discovery of an Inflated Hot Neptune and Its Formation from Jovian Mass Loss
Grant C. Weldon, Samuel W. Yee, Bradley M. S. Hansen +17
The production of Neptune-like planets with orbital periods of 3--6 days is challenging for conventional models of high-eccentricity migration. We present the discovery and charact…
