Microphysics of Water Clouds in the Atmospheres of Y Dwarfs and Temperate Giant Planets
James Mang, Peter Gao, Callie E. Hood +4
Water clouds are expected to form on Y dwarfs and giant planets with equilibrium temperatures near or below that of Earth, drastically altering their atmospheric compositions and t…
Detection of Ionized Calcium in the Atmosphere of the Ultra-Hot Jupiter WASP-76b
Emily K. Deibert, Ernst J. W. de Mooij, Ray Jayawardhana +9
Recent observations of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-76b have revealed a diversity of atmospheric species. Here we present new high-resolution transit spectroscopy of WASP-76b with GR…
Detection and Bulk Properties of the HR 8799 Planets with High Resolution Spectroscopy
Jason J. Wang, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Evan Morris +49
Using the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC), we obtained high-resolution (R35,000) -band spectra of the four planets orbiting HR 8799. We clearly detected \water…
Beyond Equilibrium Temperature: How the Atmosphere/Interior Connection Affects the Onset of Methane, Ammonia, and Clouds in Warm Transiting Giant Planets
Jonathan J. Fortney, Channon Visscher, Mark S. Marley +5
The atmospheric pressure-temperature profiles for transiting giant planets cross a range of chemical transitions. Here we show that the particular shape of these irradiated profile…
Prospects for Characterizing the Haziest Sub-Neptune Exoplanets with High Resolution Spectroscopy
Callie E. Hood, Jonathan J. Fortney, Michael R. Line +6
Observations to characterize planets larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune have led to largely inconclusive interpretations at low spectral resolution due to hazes or clouds t…
Arid or Cloudy: Characterizing the Atmosphere of the super-Earth 55 Cancri e using High-Resolution Spectroscopy
Abhinav Jindal, Ernst J. W. de Mooij, Ray Jayawardhana +6
The nearby super-Earth 55 Cnc e orbits a bright (V = 5.95 mag) star with a period of ~ 18 hours and a mass of ~ 8 Earth masses. Its atmosphere may be water-rich and have a large sc…
