Atmospheric composition of WASP-85Ab with ESPRESSO/VLT observations
Zewen Jiang, Wei Wang, Guo Chen +9
Transit spectroscopy is the most frequently used technique to reveal the atmospheric properties of exoplanets, while that at high resolution has the advantage to resolve the small…
The PEPSI Exoplanet Transit Survey (PETS) I: Investigating the presence of a silicate atmosphere on the super-Earth 55 Cnc e
Engin Keles, Matthias Mallonn, Daniel Kitzmann +26
The study of exoplanets and especially their atmospheres can reveal key insights on their evolution by identifying specific atmospheric species. For such atmospheric investigations…
Evidence for TiO in the atmosphere of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-65 b
Guo Chen, Enric Palle, Hannu Parviainen +2
We present the low-resolution transmission spectra of the puffy hot Jupiter HAT-P-65b (0.53 M, 1.89 R, K), based on two transits…
Indications for very high metallicity and absence of methane for the eccentric exo-Saturn WASP-117b
Ludmila Carone, Paul Mollière, Yifan Zhou +12
We investigate the atmospheric composition of the long period ( 10 days), eccentric exo-Saturn WASP-117b. WASP-117b could be in atmospheric temperature and chemistry…
A giant exoplanet orbiting a very low-mass star challenges planet formation models
J. C. Morales, A. J. Mustill, I. Ribas +179
Statistical analyses from exoplanet surveys around low-mass stars indicate that super-Earth and Neptune-mass planets are more frequent than gas giants around such stars, in agreeme…
Ground-based detection of an extended helium atmosphere in the Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-69b
Lisa Nortmann, Enric Pallé, Michael Salz +25
Hot gas giant exoplanets can lose part of their atmosphere due to strong stellar irradiation, affecting their physical and chemical evolution. Studies of atmospheric escape from ex…
An extended hydrogen envelope of the extremely hot giant exoplanet KELT-9b
Fei Yan, Thomas Henning
Giant exoplanets orbiting close to their host stars have high temperatures because of the immense stellar irradiation which they receive. The extreme energy input leads to the expa…
The centre-to-limb variations of solar Fraunhofer lines imprinted upon lunar eclipse spectra - Implications for exoplanet transit observations
Fei Yan, Robert A. E. Fosbury, Monika G. Petr-Gotzens +2
The atmospheres of exoplanets are commonly studied by observing the transit of the planet passing in front of its parent star. The obscuration of part of the stellar disk during a…
High resolution transmission spectrum of the Earth's atmosphere -- Seeing Earth as an exoplanet using a lunar eclipse
Fei Yan, Robert A. E. Fosbury, Monika G. Petr-Gotzens +5
With the rapid developments in the exoplanet field, more and more terrestrial exoplanets are being detected. Characterising their atmospheres using transit observations will become…
