Sorcha: A Solar System Survey Simulator for the Legacy Survey of Space and Time

Stephanie R. Merritt, Grigori Fedorets, Megan E. Schwamb +20

The upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory is expected to revolutionize solar system astronomy. Unprecedented in scale, this ten-year wide…

Doppler Tomography as a tool for characterising exoplanet atmospheres II: an analysis of HD 179949 b

S. M. Matthews, C. A. Watson, E. J. W. de Mooij +5

High-resolution Doppler spectroscopy provides an avenue to study the atmosphere of both transiting and non-transiting planets. This powerful method has also yielded some of the mos…

An inventory of atomic species in the atmosphere of WASP-121b using UVES high-resolution spectroscopy

Stephanie R. Merritt, Neale P. Gibson, Stevanus K. Nugroho +8

Ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) present excellent targets for atmospheric characterisation. Their hot dayside temperatures (T 2200 K) strongly suppress the formation of condens…

Non-detection of TiO and VO in the atmosphere of WASP-121b using high-resolution spectroscopy

Stephanie R. Merritt, Neale P. Gibson, Stevanus K. Nugroho +9

Thermal inversions have long been predicted to exist in the atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters. However, detection of two species thought to be responsible -- TiO and VO -- remain e…

Doppler tomography as a tool for detecting exoplanet atmospheres

Christopher Watson, Ernst de Mooij, Danny Steeghs +4

High-resolution Doppler spectroscopy is a powerful tool for identifying molecular species in the atmospheres of both transiting and non-transiting exoplanets. Currently, such data…
