CAMEMBERT: A Mini-Neptunes GCM Intercomparison, Protocol Version 1.0. A CUISINES Model Intercomparison Project

Duncan A. Christie, Elspeth K. H. Lee, Hamish Innes +19

With an increased focus on the observing and modelling of mini-Neptunes, there comes a need to better understand the tools we use to model their atmospheres. In this paper, we pres…

The Mantis Network II: Examining the 3D high-resolution observable properties of the UHJs WASP-121b and WASP-189b through GCM modelling

Elspeth K. H. Lee, Bibiana Prinoth, Daniel Kitzmann +4

The atmospheres of ultra hot Jupiters (UHJs) are prime targets for the detection of molecules and atoms at both low and high spectral resolution. We study the atmospheres of the UH…

Identification of carbon dioxide in an exoplanet atmosphere

The JWST Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Team, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Lili Alderson +129

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a key chemical species that is found in a wide range of planetary atmospheres. In the context of exoplanets, CO2 is an indicator of the metal enrichment (i.…

Patchy nightside clouds on ultra-hot Jupiters: General Circulation Model simulations with radiatively active cloud tracers

Thaddeus D. Komacek, Xianyu Tan, Peter Gao +1

The atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters have been characterized in detail through recent phase curve and low- and high-resolution emission and transmission spectroscopic observations…

A Mini-Chemical Scheme with Net Reactions for 3D GCMs I.: Thermochemical Kinetics

Shang-Min Tsai, Elspeth K. H. Lee, Raymond Pierrehumbert

Growing evidence has indicated that the global composition distribution plays an indisputable role in interpreting observational data. 3D general circulation models (GCMs) with a r…

Sunbathing under white light -- 3D modelling of brown dwarf - white dwarf atmospheres with strong UV irradiation

Elspeth K. H. Lee, Joshua D. Lothringer, Sarah L. Casewell +3

The atmospheres of brown dwarfs orbiting in close proximity to their parent white dwarf represent some of the most extreme irradiated environments known. Understanding their comple…

Cloud-convection feedback in brown dwarfs atmosphere

Maxence Lefèvre, Xianyu Tan, Elspeth K. H. Lee +1

Numerous observational evidence has suggested the presence of active meteorology in the atmospheres of brown dwarfs. A near-infrared brightness variability has been observed. Cloud…

Carbon monoxide emission lines reveal an inverted atmosphere in the ultra hot Jupiter WASP-33 b consistent with an eastward hot spot

Lennart van Sluijs, Jayne L. Birkby, Joshua Lothringer +7

We report the first detection of CO emission at high spectral resolution in the day-side infrared thermal spectrum of an exoplanet. These emission lines, found in the atmosphere of…
