Mining the Ultra-Hot Skies of HAT-P-70b: Detection of a Profusion of Neutral and Ionized Species
Aaron Bello-Arufe, Samuel H. C. Cabot, João M. Mendonça +2
With an equilibrium temperature above 2500 K, the recently discovered HAT-P-70 b belongs to a new class of exoplanets known as ultra-hot Jupiters: extremely irradiated gas giants w…
General Circulation Model Errors are Variable across Exoclimate Parameter Spaces
Pushkar Kopparla, Russell Deitrick, Kevin Heng +2
General circulation models are often used to explore exoclimate parameter spaces and classify atmospheric circulation regimes. Models are tuned to give reasonable climate states fo…
Mass Transport in a Moist Planetary Climate Model
João M. Mendonça
Planetary Climate Models (PCMs) are developed to explore planetary climates other than the Earth. Therefore, the methods implemented need to be suitable for a large diversity of co…
HST PanCET Program: A Complete Near-UV to Infrared Transmission Spectrum for the Hot Jupiter WASP-79b
Alexander D. Rathcke, Ryan J. MacDonald, Joanna K. Barstow +12
We present a new optical transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-79b. We observed three transits with the STIS instrument mounted on HST, spanning 0.3 - 1.0 um. Combining the…
A survey of exoplanet phase curves with Ariel
Benjamin Charnay, Joao M. Mendonça, Laura Kreidberg +12
The ESA-Ariel mission will include a tier dedicated to exoplanet phase curves corresponding to ~10% of the science time. We present here the current observing strategy for studying…
HELIOS-K 2.0 Opacity Calculator and Open-source Opacity Database for Exoplanetary Atmospheres
Simon L. Grimm, Matej Malik, Daniel Kitzmann +12
Computing and using opacities is a key part of modeling and interpreting data of exoplanetary atmospheres. Since the underlying spectroscopic line lists are constantly expanding an…
