Identification of the Top TESS Objects of Interest for Atmospheric Characterization of Transiting Exoplanets with JWST
Benjamin J. Hord, Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Thomas Mikal-Evans +142
JWST has ushered in an era of unprecedented ability to characterize exoplanetary atmospheres. While there are over 5,000 confirmed planets, more than 4,000 TESS planet candidates a…
Where are the Water Worlds?: Self-Consistent Models of Water-Rich Exoplanet Atmospheres
Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Madeline Lessard, Matej Malik +5
It remains to be ascertained whether sub-Neptune exoplanets primarily possess hydrogen-rich atmospheres or whether a population of HO-rich "water worlds" lurks in their midst.…
Constraining the Thickness of the Atmosphere of TRAPPIST-1 b from its JWST Secondary Eclipse Observation
Jegug Ih, Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Emily A. Whittaker +1
Recently, the first JWST measurement of thermal emission from a rocky exoplanet was reported. The inferred dayside brightness temperature of TRAPPIST-1 b at 15 m is consistent w…
A reflective, metal-rich atmosphere for GJ 1214b from its JWST phase curve
Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Michael Zhang, Jacob L. Bean +30
There are no planets intermediate in size between Earth and Neptune in our Solar System, yet these objects are found around a substantial fraction of other stars. Population statis…
High atmospheric metal enrichment for a Saturn-mass planet
Jacob L. Bean, Qiao Xue, Prune C. August +9
Atmospheric metal enrichment (i.e., elements heavier than helium, also called "metallicity") is a key diagnostic of the formation of giant planets. The giant planets of the solar s…
