Magma ocean interactions can explain JWST observations of the sub-Neptune TOI-270 d
Matthew C. Nixon, R. Sander Somers, Arjun B. Savel +9
Sub-Neptunes with substantial atmospheres may possess magma oceans in contact with the overlying gas, with chemical interactions between the atmosphere and magma playing an importa…
Hot Rocks Survey IV: Emission from LTT 3780 b is consistent with a bare rock
Natalie H. Allen, Néstor Espinoza, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +19
It is an open question whether small planets around M dwarfs are able to maintain atmospheres. The Hot Rocks Survey aims to address this question by observing 9 rocky exoplanets or…
Do Rocky Planets around M Stars Have Atmospheres? A Statistical Approach to the Cosmic Shoreline
Jegug Ih, Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +6
Answering the question "do rocky exoplanets around M stars have atmospheres?" is a key science goal of the JWST mission, with 500 hours of Director's Discretionary Time (DDT) award…
Hot Rocks Survey III: A deep eclipse for LHS 1140c and a new Gaussian process method to account for correlated noise in individual pixels
Mark Fortune, Neale P. Gibson, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +14
Time-series photometry at mid-infrared wavelengths is becoming a common technique to search for atmospheres around rocky exoplanets. This method constrains the brightness temperatu…
TOI-421 b: A Hot Sub-Neptune with a Haze-Free, Low Mean Molecular Weight Atmosphere
Brian Davenport, Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Matthew C. Nixon +8
Common features of sub-Neptunes atmospheres observed to date include signatures of aerosols at moderate equilibrium temperatures (~500-800 K), and a prevalence of high mean molecul…
