Volcanic Satellites Tidally Venting Na, K, SO2 in Optical & Infrared Light

Apurva V. Oza, Andrea Gebek, Moritz Meyer zu Westram +19

Recent infrared spectroscopy from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has spurred analyses of common volcanic gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), alongside…

Doppler Shifted Transient Sodium Detection by KECK/HIRES

Athira Unni, Apurva V. Oza, H. Jens Hoeijmakers +12

We carried out the first high-resolution transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-49 Ab with Keck/HIRES. Upon custom wavelength calibration we achieve a Doppler RV precision of $…

Redshifted Sodium Transient near Exoplanet Transit

Apurva V. Oza, Julia V. Seidel, H. Jens Hoeijmakers +21

Neutral sodium (Na I) is an alkali metal with a favorable absorption cross section such that tenuous gases are easily illuminated at select transiting exoplanet systems. We examine…

Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) IV. A spectral inventory of atoms and molecules in the high-resolution transmission spectrum of WASP-121 b

H. J. Hoeijmakers, J. V. Seidel, L. Pino +22

Aims: We survey the transmission spectrum of WASP-121 b for line-absorption by metals and molecules at high spectral resolution, and elaborate on existing interpretations of the op…

Alkaline Exospheres of Exoplanet Systems: Evaporative Transmission Spectra

Andrea Gebek, Apurva V. Oza

Hydrostatic equilibrium is an excellent approximation for the dense layers of planetary atmospheres where it has been canonically used to interpret transmission spectra of exoplane…

Sodium and Potassium Signatures of Volcanic Satellites Orbiting Close-in Gas Giant Exoplanets

Apurva V. Oza, Robert E. Johnson, Emmanuel Lellouch +12

Extrasolar satellites are generally too small to be detected by nominal searches. By analogy to the most active body in the Solar System, Io, we describe how sodium (Na I) and pota…
