Neutral Iron Emission Lines From The Day-side Of KELT-9b -- The GAPS Programme With HARPS-N At TNG XX
L. Pino, J. M. Désert, M. Brogi +47
We present the first detection of atomic emission lines from the atmosphere of an exoplanet. We detect neutral iron lines from the day-side of KELT-9b (Teq 4, 000 K). We com…
A snapshot full-Stokes spectropolarimeter for detecting life on Earth
Frans Snik, Christoph U. Keller, David S. Doelman +8
We present the design of a point-and-shoot non-imaging full-Stokes spectropolarimeter dedicated to detecting life on Earth from an orbiting platform like the ISS. We specifically a…
Atomic iron and titanium in the atmosphere of the exoplanet KELT-9b
H. Jens Hoeijmakers, David Ehrenreich, Kevin Heng +10
The chemical composition of an exoplanet is a key ingredient in constraining its formation history. Iron is the most abundant transition metal, but has never been directly detected…
ACCESS: A featureless optical transmission spectrum for WASP-19b from Magellan/IMACS
Néstor Espinoza, Benjamin V. \ Rackham, Andrés Jordán +13
The short period (-day) transiting exoplanet WASP-19b is an exceptional target for transmission spectroscopy studies, due to its relatively large atmospheric scale-height ($\…
The Peculiar Atmospheric Chemistry of KELT-9b
Daniel Kitzmann, Kevin Heng, Paul B. Rimmer +6
The atmospheric temperatures of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b straddle the transition between gas giants and stars, and therefore between two traditionally distinct regimes of atmo…
