Earth as a Transiting Exoplanet: A Validation of Transmission Spectroscopy and Atmospheric Retrieval Methodologies for Terrestrial Exoplanets
Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Victoria S. Meadows, David Crisp +2
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will enable the search for and characterization of terrestrial exoplanet atmospheres in the habitable zone via transmission spectroscopy. Howe…
Revealing the Mysteries of Venus: The DAVINCI Mission
James B. Garvin, Stephanie A. Getty, Giada N. Arney +36
The Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging (DAVINCI) mission described herein has been selected for flight to Venus as part of the NASA Discover…
Earth as a Proxy Exoplanet: Deconstructing and Reconstructing Spectrophotometric Light Curves
Lixiang Gu, Siteng Fan, Jiazheng Li +7
Point source spectrophotometric ("single-point") light curves of Earth-like planets contain a surprising amount of information about the spatial features of those worlds. Spatially…
Earth as an Exoplanet: A Two-dimensional Alien Map
Siteng Fan, Cheng Li, Jia-Zheng Li +5
Resolving spatially-varying exoplanet features from single-point light curves is essential for determining whether Earth-like worlds harbor geological features and/or climate syste…
The Effects of Refraction on Transit Transmission Spectroscopy: Application to Earth-like Exoplanets
Amit Misra, Victoria Meadows, Dave Crisp
We quantify the effects of refraction in transit transmission spectroscopy on spectral absorption features and on temporal variations that could be used to obtain altitude-dependen…
Bimodal Distribution of Sulfuric Acid Aerosols in the Upper Haze of Venus
Peter Gao, Xi Zhang, David Crisp +2
The upper haze (UH) of Venus is variable on the order of days and it is populated by two particle modes. We use a 1D microphysics and vertical transport model based on the Communit…
A Systematic Retrieval Analysis of Secondary Eclipse Spectra I: A Comparison of Atmospheric Retrieval Techniques
Michael R. Line, Aaron Wolf, Xi Zhang +6
Spectra of exoplanet atmospheres provide us the opportunity to improve our understanding of these objects just as remote sensing in our own solar system has increased our understan…
The Distribution of Carbon Monoxide in the Lower Atmosphere of Venus
Daniel V. Cotton, Jeremy Bailey, D. Crisp +1
We have obtained spatially resolved near-infrared spectroscopy of the Venus nightside on 15 nights over three observing seasons. We use the depth of the CO absorption band at 2.3 m…
