Niall Whiteford, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +123
JWST defines a new era for the data-driven approach of retrieval modelling, which has become a cornerstone tool for the statistical inference of exoplanetary and brown dwarf proper…
A complex structure of escaping helium spanning more than half the orbit of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121\,b
Romain Allart, Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Yann Carteret +19
Atmospheric escape of planets on short orbital periods, driven by the host star's irradiation, influences their evolution, composition, and atmospheric dynamics. Our main avenue to…
Direct Measurement of Extinction in a Planet-Hosting Gap
G. Cugno, S. Facchini, F. Alarcon +12
Recent disk observations have revealed multiple indirect signatures of forming gas giant planets, but high-contrast imaging has rarely confirmed the presence of the suspected pertu…
Ross 458c: Gas Giant or Brown Dwarf?
William W. Meynardie, Michael R. Meyer, Ryan J. MacDonald +10
Ross 458c is a widely separated planetary mass companion at a distance of 1100 AU from its host binary, Ross 458AB. It is a member of a class of very low-mass companions at distanc…
Precise Constraints on the Energy Budget of WASP-121 b from its JWST NIRISS/SOSS Phase Curve
Jared Splinter, Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Robert C. Frazier +20
Ultra-hot Jupiters exhibit day-to-night temperature contrasts upwards of 1000 K due to competing effects of strong winds, short radiative timescales, magnetic drag, and H2 dissocia…
First Results from WINERED: Detection of Emission Lines from Neutral Iron and a Combined Set of Trace Species on the Dayside of WASP-189 b
Lennart van Sluijs, Emily Rauscher, Eliza M. -R. Kempton +9
Ground and space-based observations have revealed that Ultra Hot Jupiters (UHJs,~) typically have inverted thermal profiles, while cooler hot Jupiters…
Enriched volatiles and refractories but deficient titanium on the dayside atmosphere of WASP-121b revealed by JWST/NIRISS
Stefan Pelletier, Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Jared Splinter +21
With dayside temperatures elevated enough for all atmospheric constituents to be present in gas form, ultra-hot Jupiters offer a unique opportunity to probe the composition of gian…
Assessing robustness and bias in 1D retrievals of 3D Global Circulation Models at high spectral resolution: a WASP-76 b simulation case study in emission
Lennart van Sluijs, Hayley Beltz, Isaac Malsky +4
High-resolution spectroscopy (HRS) of exoplanet atmospheres has successfully detected many chemical species and is quickly moving toward detailed characterization of the chemical a…
Follow-Up Exploration of the TWA 7 Planet-Disk System with JWST NIRCam
Katie A. Crotts, Aarynn L. Carter, Kellen Lawson +39
The young M-star TWA 7 hosts a bright and near face-on debris disk, which has been imaged from the optical to the submillimeter. The disk displays multiple complex substructures su…
Probing the Outskirts of M Dwarf Planetary Systems with a Cycle 1 JWST NIRCam Coronagraphy Survey
Ellis Bogat, Joshua E. Schlieder, Kellen D. Lawson +18
The population of giant planets on wide orbits around low-mass M dwarf stars is poorly understood, but the unprecedented sensitivity of JWST NIRCam coronagraphic imaging now provid…
The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South II -- WASP-121 b has super-stellar C/O and refractory-to-volatile ratios
Peter C. B. Smith, Jorge A. Sanchez, Michael R. Line +19
A primary goal of exoplanet science is to measure the atmospheric composition of gas giants in order to infer their formation and migration histories. Common diagnostics for planet…
