Leveraging Impact Parameter to Mitigate the Transit Light Source Effect: Early Insights from TRAPPIST-1
Ana Glidden, Alexander I. Shapiro, Sara Seager +19
Stellar activity complicates exoplanet transmission spectra, particularly for smaller planets around M dwarfs with JWST. The transit light source (TLS) effect, the imprinting of sp…
Mapping Stellar Heterogeneities with the Nautilus Space Observatory
Adina D. Feinstein, Jeff Valenti, Julien de Wit +9
Stellar photospheric heterogeneities, such as starspots and faculae, are a fundamental limitation for exoplanet transmission spectroscopy. Inhomogeneous surfaces can imprint wavele…
Nautilus: Fast Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of GKM Stellar Flares and Their Implications for Planetary Habitability
Chia-Lung Lin, Adina D. Feinstein, Jeff Valenti +10
Low-mass GKM dwarfs are prime targets for finding habitable-zone Earth-sized planets, but their frequent flares, especially on M~dwarfs, can strongly affect planetary atmospheres t…
Comprehensive Ab Initio Quantum Computations of CO-H and CO-He Collisional Properties
Prajwal Niraula, Laurent Wiesenfeld, Nejmeddine Jaïdane +6
We present comprehensive \textsl{ab initio} fully quantum calculations of CO--H and CO--He collisional properties. Our framework combines CCSD(T) pote…
Unlocking HST's Stellar Treasure Trove: Stellar Activity Minima for HAT-P-11 Offer Prime Windows for Transmission Spectroscopy
Prajwal Niraula, Benjamin V. Rackham, Julien de Wit +4
HAT-P-11 is a well-studied, active K dwarf hosting an eccentric, misaligned transiting sub-Neptune. As part of the HST Stellar Treasure Trove program (HST-AR-17551), we analyze abs…
Helium Atmospheres May Hide in Current Exoplanet Analysis Frameworks
Julien de Wit, Aaron Householder, Prajwal Niraula
The increasing number of detailed exoplanet observations offers an opportunity to refine our analyses and interpretations. Here, we show that atmospheres that appear volatile-rich…
