Probing reflection from aerosols with the near-infrared dayside spectrum of WASP-80b
Bob Jacobs, Jean-Michel Désert, Peter Gao +9
The presence of aerosols is intimately linked to the global energy budget and the composition of a planet's atmospheres. Their ability to reflect incoming light prevents energy fro…
A strong H- opacity signal in the near-infrared emission spectrum of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b
Bob Jacobs, Jean-Michel Désert, Lorenzo Pino +11
We present the analysis of a spectroscopic secondary eclipse of the hottest transiting exoplanet detected to date, KELT-9b, obtained with the Wide Field Camera 3 aboard the Hubble…
Confirmation of Water Absorption in the Thermal Emission Spectrum of the Hot Jupiter WASP-77Ab with HST/WFC3
Megan Mansfield, Lindsey Wiser, Kevin B. Stevenson +11
Secondary eclipse observations of hot Jupiters can reveal both their compositions and thermal structures. Previous observations have shown a diversity of hot Jupiter eclipse spectr…
A new approach to spectroscopic phase curves: The emission spectrum of WASP-12b observed in quadrature with HST/WFC3
J. Arcangeli, J. -M. Désert, V. Parmentier +2
We analyse emission spectra of WASP-12b from a partial phase curve observed over three epochs with the Hubble Space Telescope, covering eclipse, quadrature, and transit, respective…
Eigenspectra: A Framework for Identifying Spectra from 3D Eclipse Mapping
Megan Mansfield, Everett Schlawin, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger +8
Planetary atmospheres are inherently 3D objects that can have strong gradients in latitude, longitude, and altitude. Secondary eclipse mapping is a powerful way to map the 3D distr…
A transition between the hot and the ultra-hot Jupiter atmospheres
Claire Baxter, Jean-Michel Désert, Vivien Parmentier +6
[Abridged] A key hypothesis in the field of exoplanet atmospheres is the trend of atmospheric thermal structure with planetary equilibrium temperature. We explore this trend and re…
Climate of an Ultra hot Jupiter: Spectroscopic phase curve of WASP-18b with HST/WFC3
Jacob Arcangeli, Jean-Michel Desert, Vivien Parmentier +6
We present the analysis of a full-orbit, spectroscopic phase curve of the ultra hot Jupiter WASP-18b, obtained with the Wide Field Camera 3 aboard the Hubble Space Telescope. We me…
Global Climate and Atmospheric Composition of the Ultra-Hot Jupiter WASP-103b from HST and Spitzer Phase Curve Observations
Laura Kreidberg, Michael R. Line, Vivien Parmentier +12
We present thermal phase curve measurements for the hot Jupiter WASP-103b observed with Hubble/WFC3 and Spitzer/IRAC. The phase curves have large amplitudes and negligible hotspot…
A HST/WFC3 Thermal Emission Spectrum of the Hot Jupiter HAT-P-7b
Megan Mansfield, Jacob L. Bean, Michael R. Line +7
Secondary eclipse observations of several of the hottest hot Jupiters show featureless, blackbody-like spectra or molecular emission features, which are consistent with thermal inv…
From thermal dissociation to condensation in the atmospheres of ultra hot Jupiters: WASP-121b in context
Vivien Parmentier, Mike R. Line, Jacob L. Bean +10
A new class of exoplanets has emerged: the ultra hot Jupiters, the hottest close-in gas giants. Most of them have weaker than expected spectral features in the bandpass…
H- Opacity and Water Dissociation in the Dayside Atmosphere of the Very Hot Gas Giant WASP-18 b
Jacob Arcangeli, Jean-Michel Desert, Michael R. Line +7
We present one of the most precise emission spectra of an exoplanet observed so far. We combine five secondary eclipses of the hot Jupiter WASP-18 b (Tday=2900K) that we secured be…
