BOWIE-ALIGN: Exploring degeneracies in the muted transmission spectrum of the aligned hot Jupiter NGTS-2b with NIRSpec/G395H

Charlotte Fairman, Hannah R. Wakeford, Alastair B. Claringbold +15

We present the first atmospheric observation and characterisation of the aligned, 1468 K hot Jupiter, NGTS-2b, with one JWST NIRSpec/G395H transit. These observations complete the…

The Impact of Irradiation on the Radius and Thermal Evolution of Transiting Brown Dwarfs

Sagnick Mukherjee, Jonathan J. Fortney, Theron W. Carmichael +2

Masses and radii of transiting brown dwarfs can be measured directly in contrast to isolated field brown dwarfs, whose mass and radius inferences are model dependent. Therefore, tr…

Hot Jupiters are Inflated Primarily by Shallow Heating

Stephen P. Schmidt, Daniel P. Thorngren, Kevin C. Schlaufman

The unexpectedly large radii of transiting hot Jupiters have led to many proposals for the physical mechanisms responsible for heating their interiors. While it has been shown that…

A window for water-hydrogen demixing on warm metal-rich sub-Neptunes

Caroline Piaulet-Ghorayeb, Daniel P. Thorngren, Eliza M. -R. Kempton +4

Sub-Neptunes represent the largest exoplanet demographic, yet their bulk compositions remain poorly understood. Recent studies suggested that only very cold planets, such as Uranus…

Bayesian Model Comparison and Significance: Widespread Errors and how to Correct Them

Daniel P. Thorngren, David K. Sing, Sagnick Mukherjee

Bayes factors have become a popular tool in exoplanet spectroscopy for testing atmosphere models against one another. We show that the commonly used method for converting these val…

The Hot Jupiter Radius Anomaly and Stellar Connections

Daniel P. Thorngren

The extremely close proximity of hot Jupiters to their parent stars has dramatically affected both their atmospheres and interiors, inflating them to up to twice the radius of Jupi…

uGMRT observations of the hot-Saturn WASP 69b: Radio-Loud Exoplanet-Exomoon Survey II (RLEES II)

Mayank Narang, Apurva V. Oza, Kaustubh Hakim +7

Exomoons have so far eluded ongoing searches. Several studies have exploited transit and transit timing variations and high-resolution spectroscopy to identify potential exomoon ca…

Radio-Loud Exoplanet-Exomoon Survey (RLEES): GMRT Search for Electron Cyclotron Maser Emission

Mayank Narang, Apurva V. Oza, Kaustubh Hakim +3

We conducted the first dedicated search for signatures of exoplanet-exomoon interactions using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) as part of the radio-loud exoplanet-exomoo…

A Piecewise Deterministic Markov Process via swaps in hyperspherical coordinates

Alexander Terenin, Daniel Thorngren

Recently, a class of stochastic processes known as piecewise deterministic Markov processes has been used to define continuous-time Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms with a numbe…

Enhancement of NEST Capabilities for Simulating Low-Energy Recoils in Liquid Xenon

Matthew Szydagis, Adalyn Fyhrie, Daniel Thorngren +1

The Noble Element Simulation Technique (NEST) is an exhaustive collection of models explaining both the scintillation light and ionization yields of noble elements as a function of…
