A parameterised approach to disequilibrium retrievals in the JWST era: Application to NIRCam observations of HD 189733b
Jake Taylor, Shang-Min Tsai, Vivien Parmentier +2
Atmospheric retrievals are a widely used technique for inferring the physical and chemical properties of exoplanetary atmospheres from observed spectra. A common simplifying assump…
Hot Rocks Survey V: Secondary Eclipse Photometry of GJ 3473 b with JWST/MIRI
Måns Holmberg, Hannah Diamond-Lowe, João M. Mendonça +16
JWST is transforming our ability to characterise small exoplanets, from sub-Neptunes to rocky worlds. A key open question is whether highly irradiated rocky planets can retain atmo…
Mantle Convection and Nightside Volcanism on Lava World K2-141 b
Tobias G. Meier, Claire Marie Guimond, Raymond T. Pierrehumbert +13
Ultra-short period lava worlds offer a unique window into the coupled evolution of planetary interior and atmospheres under extreme irradiation. In this study, we investigate the m…
BOWIE-ALIGN: Sub-solar C/O ratio and metallicity atmosphere of the misaligned hot Jupiter HAT-P-30b
Alastair B. Claringbold, Chloe E. Fisher, James Kirk +18
We present the JWST NIRSpec/G395H transmission spectrum of the misaligned hot Jupiter HAT-P-30b from 2.8--5.2 m as part of the BOWIE-ALIGN survey, a comparative survey designed…
JWST NIRSpec finds no clear signs of an atmosphere on TOI-1685 b
Chloe E. Fisher, Matthew J. Hooton, Amélie Gressier +21
Determining the prevalence of atmospheres on terrestrial planets is a core objective in exoplanetary science. While M dwarf systems offer a promising opportunity, conclusive observ…
A Comprehensive Reanalysis of K2-18 b's JWST NIRISS+NIRSpec Transmission Spectrum
Stephen P. Schmidt, Ryan J. MacDonald, Shang-Min Tsai +13
Sub-Neptunes are the most common type of planet in our galaxy. Interior structure models suggest that the coldest sub-Neptunes could host liquid water oceans underneath their hydro…
