Wavefront sensing and control in space-based coronagraph instruments using Zernike's phase-contrast method
Garreth Ruane, J. Kent Wallace, John Steeves +14
Future space telescopes with coronagraph instruments will use a wavefront sensor (WFS) to measure and correct for phase errors and stabilize the stellar intensity in high-contrast…
Thermochemistry and Photochemistry in Cooler Hydrogen Dominated Extrasolar Planets: The Case of GJ436b
Michael R Line, Gautam Vasisht, Pin Chen +2
We introduce a new thermochemical kinetics and photochemical model. We use high-temperature bidirectional reaction rates for important H, C, O and N reactions (most importantly for…
A ground-based near-infrared emission spectrum of the exoplanet HD 189733b
Mark R. Swain, Pieter Deroo, Caitlin A. Griffith +9
Detection of molecules using infrared spectroscopy probes the conditions and compositions of exoplanet atmospheres. Water (H2O), methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and carbon mon…
Water, Methane, and Carbon Dioxide Present in the Dayside Spectrum of the Exoplanet HD 209458b
M. Swain, G. Tinetti, G. Vasisht +11
Using the NICMOS instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope, we have measured the dayside spectrum of HD 209458b between 1.5--2.5 microns. The emergent spectrum is dominated by featu…
