Latitudinal chemical and cloud variations in the atmosphere of a brown dwarf
Benjamin Charnay, Sam de Regt, Matthieu Ravet +8
The paper introduces a technique called Differential Molecular Rotational Broadening to detect latitudinal chemical differences in brown dwarf atmospheres, and applies it to VLT-CR…

Phase-dependent chemistry of WASP-43 b revealed with a suite of one-, two-, and three-dimensional models
Robin Baeyens, Julianne I. Moses, Jasmina Blecic +17
Our goal is to investigate the chemistry of the hot Jupiter WASP-43 b in detail using theoretical models, considering the constraints of the James Webb Space Telescope MIRI phase c…

Clouds as the driver of variability and colour changes in brown dwarf atmospheres
Lucas Teinturier, Benjamin Charnay, Aymeric Spiga +1
Brown dwarfs are massive, giant exoplanet analogues subject to variability and colour changes, known as the L/T transition, fundamental for their thermal evolution. The drivers of…
