Piercing through the Haze: Characterizing Titan-like terrestrial exoplanets with JWST

L. C. Mayorga, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Andrew P. Lincowski +5

As we enter a new era of using JWST to characterize exoplanet atmospheres, a top priority is defining observational needs and parameters in the search for life on an exoplanet. Alt…

A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b

A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77

Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…

A WISPR of the Venus Surface: Analysis of the Venus Nightside Thermal Emission at Optical Wavelengths

J. Lustig-Yaeger, N. R. Izenberg, M. S. Gilmore +8

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) conducted several flybys of Venus while using Venus' gravity for orbital adjustments to enable its daring passes of the Sun. During these flybys, PSP turne…

On the Effectiveness of the Planetary Infrared Excess (PIE) Technique to Retrieve the Parameters of Multiplanet Systems around M dwarfs: A Case Study on the TRAPPIST-1 System

L. C. Mayorga, J. Lustig-Yaeger, K. B. Stevenson

The planetary infrared excess (PIE) technique has the potential to efficiently detect and characterize the thermal spectra of both transiting and non-transiting exoplanets. However…

High Tide or Riptide on the Cosmic Shoreline? A Water-Rich Atmosphere or Stellar Contamination for the Warm Super-Earth GJ~486b from JWST Observations

Sarah E. Moran, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +21

Planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are prime targets in the search for rocky exoplanet atmospheres. The small size of M dwarfs renders their planets exceptional targets for transmissio…

Hotter Than Expected: HST/WFC3 Phase-resolved Spectroscopy of a Rare Irradiated Brown Dwarf with Strong Internal Heat Flux

Rachael C. Amaro, Daniel Apai, Yifan Zhou +8

With infrared flux contrasts larger than typically seen in hot Jupiter, tidally-locked white dwarf-brown dwarf binaries offer a superior opportunity to investigate atmospheric proc…
