A dark, bare rock for TOI-1685 b from a JWST NIRSpec G395H phase curve
Rafael Luque, Brandon Park Coy, Qiao Xue +9
We report JWST NIRSpec/G395H observations of TOI-1685 b, a hot rocky super-Earth orbiting an M2.5V star, during a full orbit. We obtain transmission and emission spectra of the pla…
JWST/NIRISS reveals the water-rich "steam world" atmosphere of GJ 9827 d
Caroline Piaulet-Ghorayeb, Bjorn Benneke, Michael Radica +30
With sizable volatile envelopes but smaller radii than the solar system ice giants, sub-Neptunes have been revealed as one of the most common types of planet in the galaxy. While t…
BOWIE-ALIGN: JWST reveals hints of planetesimal accretion and complex sulphur chemistry in the atmosphere of the misaligned hot Jupiter WASP-15b
James Kirk, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Alastair B. Claringbold +23
We present a transmission spectrum of the misaligned hot Jupiter WASP-15b from 2.8-5.2 microns observed with JWST's NIRSpec/G395H grating. Our high signal to noise data, which has…
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…
Inhomogeneous terminators on the exoplanet WASP-39 b
Néstor Espinoza, Maria E. Steinrueck, James Kirk +40
Transmission spectroscopy has been a workhorse technique over the past two decades to constrain the physical and chemical properties of exoplanet atmospheres. One of its classical…
Sulphur dioxide in the mid-infrared transmission spectrum of WASP-39b
Diana Powell, Adina D. Feinstein, Elspeth K. H. Lee +70
The recent inference of sulphur dioxide (SO) in the atmosphere of the hot (1100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations suggests that phot…
BOWIE-ALIGN: How formation and migration histories of giant planets impact atmospheric compositions
Anna B. T. Penzlin, Richard A. Booth, James Kirk +15
Hot Jupiters present a unique opportunity for measuring how planet formation history shapes present-day atmospheric composition. However, due to the myriad pathways influencing com…
BOWIE-ALIGN: A JWST comparative survey of aligned vs misaligned hot Jupiters to test the dependence of atmospheric composition on migration history
James Kirk, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Anna B. T. Penzlin +19
A primary objective of exoplanet atmosphere characterisation is to learn about planet formation and evolution, however, this is challenged by degeneracies. To determine whether dif…
Atmospheric characterisation and tighter constraints on the orbital misalignment of WASP-94 A b with HARPS
E. Ahrer, J. V. Seidel, L. Doyle +10
We present high spectral resolution observations of the hot Jupiter WASP-94 A b using the HARPS instrument on ESO's 3.6m telescope in La Silla, Chile. We probed for Na absorption i…
JWST Reveals CH, CO, and HO in a Metal-rich Miscible Atmosphere on a Two-Earth-Radius Exoplanet
Björn Benneke, Pierre-Alexis Roy, Louis-Philippe Coulombe +28
Even though sub-Neptunes likely represent the most common outcome of planet formation, their natures remain poorly understood. In particular, planets near 1.5-2.5 often…
Quenching-driven equatorial depletion and limb asymmetries in hot Jupiter atmospheres: WASP-96b example
Maria Zamyatina, Duncan A. Christie, Eric Hébrard +11
Transport-induced quenching in hot Jupiter atmospheres is a process that determines the boundary between the part of the atmosphere at chemical equilibrium and the part of the atmo…
Nightside clouds and disequilibrium chemistry on the hot Jupiter WASP-43b
Taylor J. Bell, Nicolas Crouzet, Patricio E. Cubillos +80
Hot Jupiters are among the best-studied exoplanets, but it is still poorly understood how their chemical composition and cloud properties vary with longitude. Theoretical models pr…
