A Spatial Map of the Atmospheric Limb of a Hot Jupiter
Lili Alderson, Hannah R. Wakeford, David Grant +18
Planets are inherently three-dimensional objects shaped by their thermal structure and dynamics. Observations of transiting exoplanets have begun to uncover this three-dimensional…
JWST-TST DREAMS: NIRSpec/PRISM Transmission Spectroscopy of the Habitable Zone Planet TRAPPIST-1 e
Néstor Espinoza, Natalie H. Allen, Ana Glidden +32
TRAPPIST-1 e is one of the very few rocky exoplanets that is both amenable to atmospheric characterization and that resides in the habitable zone of its star -- located at a distan…
JWST-TST DREAMS: Secondary Atmosphere Constraints for the Habitable Zone Planet TRAPPIST-1 e
Ana Glidden, Sukrit Ranjan, Sara Seager +25
The TRAPPIST-1 system offers one of the best opportunities to characterize temperate terrestrial planets beyond our own solar system. Within the TRAPPIST-1 system, planet e stands…
Modeling tails of escaping gas in exoplanet atmospheres with Harmonica
Carlos Gascón, Mercedes López-Morales, Shreyas Vissapragada +5
Exoplanets that reside close to their host stars, and therefore receive substantial amounts of X-ray and ultraviolet radiation, are prone to suffer from strong atmospheric escape.…
JWST-TST DREAMS: A Super-Solar Metallicity in WASP-17 b Dayside Atmosphere from NIRISS SOSS Eclipse Spectroscopy
Amélie Gressier, Ryan J. MacDonald, Néstor Espinoza +26
We present the first emission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-17 b using one eclipse observation from the JWST Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) Single Objec…
JWST-TST DREAMS: Non-Uniform Dayside Emission for WASP-17b from MIRI/LRS
Daniel Valentine, Hannah R. Wakeford, Ryan C. Challener +23
We present the first spectroscopic characterisation of the dayside atmosphere of WASP-17b in the mid-infrared using a single JWST MIRI/LRS eclipse observation. From forward-model f…
Quartz Clouds in the Dayside Atmosphere of the Quintessential Hot Jupiter HD 189733 b
Julie Inglis, Natasha E. Batalha, Nikole K. Lewis +16
Recent mid-infrared observations with JWST/MIRI have resulted in the first direct detections of absorption features from silicate clouds in the transmission spectra of two transiti…
ExoTiC-LD: thirty seconds to stellar limb-darkening coefficients
David Grant, Hannah R. Wakeford
Stellar limb darkening is the observed variation in brightness of a star between its centre and edge (or limb) when viewed in the plane of the sky. Stellar brightness is maximal at…
A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b
A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77
Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…
JWST-TST DREAMS: Quartz Clouds in the Atmosphere of WASP-17b
David Grant, Nikole K. Lewis, Hannah R. Wakeford +39
Clouds are prevalent in many of the exoplanet atmospheres that have been observed to date. For transiting exoplanets, we know if clouds are present because they mute spectral featu…
Detection of carbon monoxide's 4.6 micron fundamental band structure in WASP-39b's atmosphere with JWST NIRSpec G395H
David Grant, Joshua D. Lothringer, Hannah R. Wakeford +28
Carbon monoxide (CO) is predicted to be the dominant carbon-bearing molecule in giant planet atmospheres, and, along with water, is important for discerning the oxygen and therefor…
MPS-ATLAS library of stellar model atmospheres and spectra
N. Kostogryz, A. I Shapiro, V. Witzke +5
Stellar spectra contain a large amount of information about the conditions in stellar atmospheres. However, extracting this information is challenging and demands comprehensive num…
Transmission strings: a technique for spatially mapping exoplanet atmospheres around their terminators
David Grant, Hannah R. Wakeford
Exoplanet transmission spectra, which measure the absorption of light passing through a planet's atmosphere during transit, are most often assessed globally, resulting in a single…
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.…
A Comprehensive Analysis of WASP-17b's Transmission Spectrum from Space-Based Observations
L. Alderson, H. R. Wakeford, R. J. MacDonald +9
Due to its 1770 K equilibrium temperature, WASP-17b, a 1.99 , 0.486 exoplanet, sits at the critical juncture between hot and ultra-hot Jupiters. We…
