Cloudy solutions for the clear skies of WASP-80b: 3D cloud feedback on the atmosphere and spectra of a warm Jupiter
Nishil Mehta, Vivien Parmentier, Xianyu Tan +14
Close-in warm Jupiters orbiting M dwarf stars are expected to exhibit diverse atmospheric chemistry, with clouds playing a key role in shaping their albedo, heat distribution, and…
A Precise Metallicity and Carbon-to-Oxygen Ratio for a Warm Giant Exoplanet from its Panchromatic JWST Emission Spectrum
Lindsey S. Wiser, Taylor J. Bell, Michael R. Line +11
WASP-80 b, a warm sub-Jovian (equilibrium temperature ~820 K, 0.5 Jupiter masses), presents an opportunity to characterize a rare gas giant exoplanet around a low-mass star. In add…
A Panchromatic Characterization of the Evening and Morning Atmosphere of WASP-107 b: Composition and Cloud Variations, and Insight into the Effect of Stellar Contamination
Matthew M. Murphy, Thomas G. Beatty, Everett Schlawin +16
Limb-resolved transmission spectroscopy has the potential to transform our understanding of exoplanetary atmospheres. By separately measuring the transmission spectra of the evenin…
Escaping Helium and a Highly Muted Spectrum Suggest a Metal-Enriched Atmosphere on Sub-Neptune GJ3090b from JWST Transit Spectroscopy
Eva-Maria Ahrer, Michael Radica, Caroline Piaulet-Ghorayeb +27
Sub-Neptunes, the most common planet type, remain poorly understood. Their atmospheres are expected to be diverse, but their compositions are challenging to determine, even with JW…
Challenges in the detection of gases in exoplanet atmospheres
Luis Welbanks, Matthew C. Nixon, Peter McGill +12
Claims of detections of gases in exoplanet atmospheres often rely on comparisons between models including and excluding specific chemical species. However, the space of molecular c…
HST Transmission Spectra of the Hot-Neptune HD 219666 b: Detection of Water and the Challenge of Constraining Both Water and Methane
Matthew M. Murphy, Thomas G. Beatty, Luis Welbanks +1
Although Neptunian-sized (2 - 5 R) planets appear to be extremely common in the Galaxy, many mysteries remain about their overall nature. To date, only 11 Neptunian-sized…
A JWST Panchromatic Thermal Emission Spectrum of the Warm Neptune Archetype GJ 436b
Sagnick Mukherjee, Everett Schlawin, Taylor J. Bell +10
GJ 436b is the archetype warm Neptune exoplanet. The planet's thermal emission spectrum was previously observed via intensive secondary eclipse campaigns with Spitzer. The atmosphe…
Earth Detecting Earth: At what distance could Earth's constellation of technosignatures be detected with present-day technology?
Sofia Z. Sheikh, Macy J. Huston, Pinchen Fan +5
The field of the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) searches for ``technosignatures'' that could provide the first detection of life beyond Earth through the technolog…
Statistical trends in JWST transiting exoplanet atmospheres
Guangwei Fu, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +13
Our brains are hardwired for pattern recognition as correlations are useful for predicting and understanding nature. As more exoplanet atmospheres are being characterized with JWST…
