A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b

A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77

Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…

Inhomogeneous terminators on the exoplanet WASP-39 b

Néstor Espinoza, Maria E. Steinrueck, James Kirk +40

Transmission spectroscopy has been a workhorse technique over the past two decades to constrain the physical and chemical properties of exoplanet atmospheres. One of its classical…

A WISPR of the Venus Surface: Analysis of the Venus Nightside Thermal Emission at Optical Wavelengths

J. Lustig-Yaeger, N. R. Izenberg, M. S. Gilmore +8

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) conducted several flybys of Venus while using Venus' gravity for orbital adjustments to enable its daring passes of the Sun. During these flybys, PSP turne…

JWST-TST DREAMS: Quartz Clouds in the Atmosphere of WASP-17b

David Grant, Nikole K. Lewis, Hannah R. Wakeford +39

Clouds are prevalent in many of the exoplanet atmospheres that have been observed to date. For transiting exoplanets, we know if clouds are present because they mute spectral featu…

ACCESS, LRG-BEASTS, & MOPSS: Featureless Optical Transmission Spectra of WASP-25b and WASP-124b

Chima D. McGruder, Mercedes López-Morales, James Kirk +14

We present new optical transmission spectra for two hot Jupiters: WASP-25b (M = 0.56~M; R = 1.23 R; P =~3.76 days) and WASP-124b (M = 0.58~M; R = 1.34 R; P = 3.37 d…

High Tide or Riptide on the Cosmic Shoreline? A Water-Rich Atmosphere or Stellar Contamination for the Warm Super-Earth GJ~486b from JWST Observations

Sarah E. Moran, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +21

Planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are prime targets in the search for rocky exoplanet atmospheres. The small size of M dwarfs renders their planets exceptional targets for transmissio…
