Refractory and Volatile Species in the UV-to-IR Transmission Spectrum of Ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-178b with HST and JWST

Joshua D. Lothringer, Katherine A. Bennett, David K. Sing +17

The atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters are unique compared to other planets because of the presence of both refractory and volatile gaseous species, enabling a new lens to constrain…

Ground-Based Transmission Spectroscopy with VLT FORS2: Evidence for faculae and clouds in the optical spectrum of the warm Saturn WASP-110b

Nikolay Nikolov, Gracjan Maciejewski, Savvas Constantinou +12

We present a ground-based optical transmission spectrum for the warm Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-110b from two transit observations made with the FOcal Reducer and Spectrograph (FOR…

ACCESS & LRG-BEASTS: a precise new optical transmission spectrum of the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-103b

James Kirk, Ben Rackham, Ryan MacDonald +17

We present a new ground-based optical transmission spectrum of the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-103b (K). Our transmission spectrum is the result of combining five new tran…

Gemini/GMOS Optical Transmission Spectroscopy of WASP-121b: signs of variability in an ultra-hot Jupiter?

Jamie Wilson, Neale P. Gibson, Joshua D. Lothringer +5

We present ground-based, spectroscopic observations of two transits of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121b covering the wavelength range 500 - 950 nm using Gemini/GMOS. We use…

A New Window into Planet Formation and Migration: Refractory-to-Volatile Elemental Ratios in Ultra-hot Jupiters

Joshua D. Lothringer, Zafar Rustamkulov, David K. Sing +3

A primary goal of exoplanet characterization is to use a planet's current composition to understand how that planet formed. For example, the C/O ratio has long been recognized as c…

Ground-Based Transmission Spectroscopy with FORS2: A featureless optical transmission spectrum and detection of HO for the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-103b

J. Wilson, N. P. Gibson, N. Nikolov +11

We report ground-based transmission spectroscopy of the highly irradiated and ultra-short period hot-Jupiter WASP-103b covering the wavelength range 400-600 nm using the…
