Atomic and Molecular Opacities for Brown Dwarf and Giant Planet Atmospheres

Christopher M. Sharp, Adam Burrows

We present a comprehensive description of the theory and practice of opacity calculations from the infrared to the ultraviolet needed to generate models of the atmospheres of brown…

Spectroscopic Constants, Abundances, and Opacities of the TiH Molecule

A. Burrows, M. Dulick, C. W. Bauschlicher +4

Using previous measurements and quantum chemical calculations to derive the molecular properties of the TiH molecule, we obtain new values for its ro-vibrational constants, thermoc…

Line Intensities and Molecular Opacities of the FeH Transition

M. Dulick, C. W. Bauschlicher, Adam Burrows +3

We calculate new line lists and opacities for the transition of FeH. The 0-0 band of this transition is responsible for the Wing-Ford band seen in M-type stars, sun…

New CrH Opacities for the Study of L and Brown Dwarf Atmospheres

Adam Burrows, R. S. Ram, Peter Bernath +2

In this paper, we calculate new line lists and opacities for the 12 bands of the A -- X transitions of the CrH molecule. Identified in objects of the new L dwarf…

Chemical Equilibrium Abundances in Brown Dwarf and Extrasolar Giant Planet Atmospheres

A. Burrows, C. Sharp

We calculate detailed chemical abundance profiles for a variety of brown dwarf and extrasolar giant planet atmosphere models, focusing in particular on Gliese 229B, and derive the…

The Spectral Character of Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs

A. Burrows, M. Marley, W. B. Hubbard +6

Since October of 1995, employing Doppler spectroscopy astronomers have discovered as many as 20 giant planets and brown dwarfs, including companions to Boo, 51 Peg, …

Advances in the Theory of Extrasolar Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs

A. Burrows, D. Sudarsky, C. Sharp +6

We have developed a new non-gray theory of the evolution, spectra, and colors of extrasolar giant planets (EGPs) and brown dwarfs that reveals their exotic nature and uniqueness. W…

A Non-Gray Theory of Extrasolar Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs

A. Burrows, M. Marley, W. B. Hubbard +6

We present the results of a new series of non-gray calculations of the atmospheres, spectra, colors, and evolution of extrasolar giant planets (EGPs) and brown dwarfs for effective…
