JWST MIRI reveals a potential atmosphere on the ultra-hot rocky planet TOI-431b
Cole Smith, Brandon Park Coy, Megan Weiner Mansfield +13
An open question in exoplanet science is whether rocky exoplanets extremely close in to their host stars, `lava worlds', can retain significant atmospheres. Thermal emission observ…
Magnetic field strengths of hot giant exoplanets consistent with Solar System values
Julia V. Seidel, Vivien Parmentier, Bibiana Prinoth +29
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the universe. They play a key role in shaping the activity of stars, the habitability of rocky planets, and the long-term retention of planetary a…
Reinterpreting the JWST Observations of 55 Cancri e with a Non-Grey General Circulation Model
Ruizhi Zhan, Daniel D. B. Koll
Recent observations of 55 Cancri e suggest an atmosphere rich in CO or CO (Hu et al. 2024); other observations indicate the planet's eclipse depth is highly variable (e.g. Pate…
The dark and featureless surface of rocky exoplanet LHS 3844 b from JWST mid-infrared spectroscopy
Sebastian Zieba, Laura Kreidberg, Brandon P. Coy +13
JWST has opened a new era in the study of rocky exoplanets, enabling direct characterization of their surfaces with mid-infrared spectroscopy. Different types of rock have distinct…
Evidence for an Atmosphere on the Ultra-Short Period super-Earth HD 3167 b
Brandon Park Coy, Qiao Xue, Megan Weiner Mansfield +14
'Lava worlds'-Earth-sized planets hot enough (Teq >~ 1100 K) to melt their dayside silicate surfaces-have emerged as promising candidates for atmospheric detection and characteriza…
