Inhomogeneous Cloud Coverage and Altitude-Dependent Heat Transport on the Hot-Jupiter NGTS-10 Ab from its Optical-to-Infrared Phase Curve

Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Vivien Parmentier, Kevin B. Stevenson +15

Hot-Jupiters, gas giant planets with equilibrium temperatures above 1,000 K, host large temperature gradients between their permanent day- and nightsides, resulting in circulation…

JWST MIRI reveals a potential atmosphere on the ultra-hot rocky planet TOI-431b

Cole Smith, Brandon Park Coy, Megan Weiner Mansfield +13

An open question in exoplanet science is whether rocky exoplanets extremely close in to their host stars, `lava worlds', can retain significant atmospheres. Thermal emission observ…

No Helium Detected in LHS 1140 b from Four JWST NIRISS/SOSS Transits

Katherine A. Bennett, Carlos Gascón, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger +13

In the effort to determine which low-mass exoplanets have atmospheres, LHS 1140 b remains one of the most favorable targets. Its large size (5.6 and 1.7 $\rm R_{\o…

The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South V: Atmosphere of MASCARA-1b is Enriched in Refractory Elements

Krishna Kanumalla, Michael R. Line, Martina Chiarella +75

Ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs; K) enable simultaneous detection of volatile (ice-forming) and refractory (rock-forming) species in planetary atmospheres, provi…

Horizontal transport as a source of disequilibrium chemistry on the nightside of a hot exoplanet

Vivien Parmentier, Kevin B. Stevenson, Luis Welbanks +15

Hot Jupiters have temperature gradients of several hundreds of degrees between their permanent day and nightsides. In equilibrium, the primary carbon reservoir is expected to trans…

NASA's Pandora SmallSat Mission: Simulated Modeling and Retrieval of Near-Infrared Exoplanet Transmission Spectra

Yoav Rotman, Peter McGill, Luis Welbanks +22

Pandora is a SmallSat mission dedicated to understanding exoplanets and their host stars by disentangling the impact of stellar heterogeneity on exoplanet transmission spectra. Sel…
