Haze optical depth in exoplanet atmospheres varies with rotation rate: Implications for observations

Maureen Cohen, Paul I. Palmer, Adiv Paradise +2

Transmission spectroscopy supports the presence of uncharacterised, light-scattering and -absorbing aerosols in the atmospheres of many exoplanets. The complexity of factors influe…

Stratospheric dayside-to-nightside circulation drives the 3-D ozone distribution on synchronously rotating rocky exoplanets

Marrick Braam, Paul I. Palmer, Leen Decin +2

Determining the habitability and interpreting future atmospheric observations of exoplanets requires understanding the atmospheric dynamics and chemistry from a 3-D perspective. Pr…

Retrieval study of cool, directly imaged exoplanet 51 Eri b

Niall Whiteford, Alistair Glasse, Katy L. Chubb +12

Retrieval methods are a powerful analysis technique for modelling exoplanetary atmospheres by estimating the bulk physical and chemical properties that combine in a forward model t…

Traveling planetary-scale waves cause cloud variability on tidally locked aquaplanets

Maureen Cohen, Massimo A. Bollasina, Denis E. Sergeev +2

Cloud cover at the planetary limb of water-rich Earth-like planets is likely to weaken chemical signatures in transmission spectra, impeding attempts to characterize these atmosphe…

3D modelling of the impact of stellar activity on tidally locked terrestrial exoplanets: atmospheric composition and habitability

Robert J. Ridgway, Maria Zamyatina, Nathan J. Mayne +7

Stellar flares present challenges to the potential habitability of terrestrial planets orbiting M dwarf stars through inducing changes in the atmospheric composition and irradiatin…

Lightning-induced chemistry on tidally-locked Earth-like exoplanets

Marrick Braam, Paul I. Palmer, Leen Decin +5

Determining the habitability and interpreting atmospheric spectra of exoplanets requires understanding their atmospheric physics and chemistry. We use a 3-D Coupled Climate-Chemist…

Convolutional neural networks as an alternative to Bayesian retrievals

Francisco Ardevol Martinez, Michiel Min, Inga Kamp +1

Exoplanet observations are currently analysed with Bayesian retrieval techniques. Due to the computational load of the models used, a compromise is needed between model complexity…

Longitudinally asymmetric stratospheric oscillation on a tidally locked exoplanet

Maureen Cohen, Massimo A. Bollasina, Paul I. Palmer +4

Using a three-dimensional general circulation model, we show that the atmospheric dynamics on a tidally locked Earth-like exoplanet, simulated with the planetary and orbital parame…

Ozone chemistry on tidally locked M dwarf planets

Jack S. Yates, Paul I. Palmer, James Manners +4

We use the Met Office Unified Model to explore the potential of a tidally locked M dwarf planet, nominally Proxima Centauri b irradiated by a quiescent version of its host star, to…

Atmospheric Habitable Zones in Cool Y Dwarf Atmospheres

Jack S. Yates, Paul I. Palmer, Beth Biller +1

We use a simple organism lifecycle model to explore the viability of an atmospheric habitable zone (AHZ), with temperatures that could support Earth-centric life, which sits above…

A non-linear optimal estimation inverse method for radio occultation measurements of temperature, humidity and surface pressure

Paul I. Palmer, J. J. Barnett, J. R. Eyre +1

An optimal estimation inverse method is presented which can be used to retrieve simultaneously vertical profiles of temperature and specific humidity, in addition to surface pressu…
