Reliability of 1D radiative-convective photochemical-equilibrium retrievals on transit spectra of WASP-107b
Thomas Konings, Linus Heinke, Robin Baeyens +3
Observations of WASP-107b suggest a metal-rich and carbon-deprived atmosphere with an extremely hot interior based on detections of SO, HO, CO, CO, NH, and CH.…
A new pathway to SO: Revealing the NUV driven sulfur chemistry in hot gas giants
Wiebe de Gruijter, Shang-Min Tsai, Michiel Min +3
Context. Photochemistry is a key process driving planetary atmospheres away from local thermodynamic equilibrium. Recent observations of the H dominated atmospheres of hot gas…
SO2, silicate clouds, but no CH4 detected in a warm Neptune
Achrene Dyrek, Michiel Min, Leen Decin +44
WASP-107b is a warm (~740 K) transiting planet with a Neptune-like mass of ~30.5 Earth masses and Jupiter-like radius of ~0.94 Jupiter radius, whose extended atmosphere is eroding.…
3D simulations of AGB stellar winds -- II. Ray-tracer implementation and impact of radiation on the outflow morphology
Mats Esseldeurs, Lionel Siess, Frederik De Ceuster +6
Stars with an initial mass below ~ 8 Msun evolve through the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase, during which they develop strong stellar winds. Recent observations have revealed…
Impact of stellar flares on the chemical composition and transmission spectra of gaseous exoplanets orbiting M dwarfs
Thomas Konings, Robin Baeyens, Leen Decin
Stellar flares of active M dwarfs can affect the atmospheric composition of close-orbiting gas giants, and can result in time-dependent transmission spectra. We aim to examine the…
Grid of pseudo-2D chemistry models for tidally locked exoplanets -- II. The role of photochemistry
Robin Baeyens, Thomas Konings, Olivia Venot +2
Photochemistry is expected to change the chemical composition of the upper atmospheres of irradiated exoplanets through the dissociation of species, such as methane and ammonia, an…
