Sensitivity of Dry Lava Planet Atmospheric Emission Spectra to Changes in Lava Compositions

Christiaan P. A. van Buchem, Rojita Buddhacharya, Mantas Zilinskas +3

The atmospheres of hot rocky exoplanets are among the first primary targets of the JWST. Interpreting their atmospheric spectra requires understanding the link between silicate lav…

Hot and cloudy: High temperature clouds in super-Earths and sub-Neptunes

Leoni J. Janssen, Yamila Miguel, Michiel Min +3

JWST observations provide for the first time evidence for an atmosphere on a rocky exoplanet - 55 Cnc e. The atmosphere of 55 Cnc e is hot with K and sho…

Methane on the temperate exo-Saturn TOI-199b

Aaron Bello-Arufe, Renyu Hu, Mantas Zilinskas +10

Temperate ( K) gas giants represent an unexplored frontier in exoplanet atmospheric spectroscopy. Orbiting a G-type star every days, the Saturn-mass exopl…

Worlds Next Door: A Candidate Giant Planet Imaged in the Habitable Zone of Cen A. I. Observations, Orbital and Physical Properties, and Exozodi Upper Limits

Charles Beichman, Aniket Sanghi, Dimitri Mawet +27

We report on coronagraphic observations of the nearest solar-type star, Cen A, using the MIRI instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope. With three epochs of observation (Au…

Characterising the Atmosphere of 55 Cancri e: 1D Forward Model Grid for Current and Future JWST Observations

Mantas Zilinskas, Christiaan van Buchem, Sebastian Zieba +9

Recent JWST observations with NIRCam and MIRI of the ultra-short-period super-Earth 55 Cancri e indicate a possible volatile atmosphere surrounding the planet. Previous analysis of…

LavAtmos 2.0: Incorporating Volatiles Species in Vaporization Models

Christiaan P. A. van Buchem, Mantas Zilinskas, Yamila Miguel +1

Due to strong irradiation, hot rocky exoplanets are able to sustain lava oceans. Direct interaction between these oceans and overlying atmospheres can provide insight into planetar…
