A Non-Detection of Iron in the First High-Resolution Emission Study of the Lava Planet 55 Cnc e

Kaitlin C. Rasmussen, Miles H. Currie, Celeste Hagee +17

Close-in lava planets represent an extreme example of terrestrial worlds, but their high temperatures may allow us to probe a diversity of crustal compositions. The brightest and m…

HST/WFC3 Light Curve Supports a Terrestrial Composition for the Closest Exoplanet to Transit an M Dwarf

Emily K Pass, Jennifer G Winters, David Charbonneau +6

Previous studies of the exoplanet LTT 1445Ac concluded that the light curve from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) was consistent with both grazing and non-grazing g…

Identification of the Top TESS Objects of Interest for Atmospheric Characterization of Transiting Exoplanets with JWST

Benjamin J. Hord, Eliza M. -R. Kempton, Thomas Mikal-Evans +142

JWST has ushered in an era of unprecedented ability to characterize exoplanetary atmospheres. While there are over 5,000 confirmed planets, more than 4,000 TESS planet candidates a…

Outflowing helium from a mature mini-Neptune

Michael Zhang, Fei Dai, Jacob L. Bean +2

We announce the detection of escaping helium from TOI 2134b, a mini-Neptune a few Gyr old. The average in-transit absorption spectrum shows a peak of 0.37 +- 0.05% and an equivalen…

Time-resolved transmission spectroscopy of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-189 b

Bibiana Prinoth, H. Jens Hoeijmakers, Stefan Pelletier +14

Ultra-hot Jupiters are tidally locked with their host stars dividing their atmospheres into a hot dayside and a colder nightside. As the planet moves through transit, different reg…

Probing reflection from aerosols with the near-infrared dayside spectrum of WASP-80b

Bob Jacobs, Jean-Michel Désert, Peter Gao +9

The presence of aerosols is intimately linked to the global energy budget and the composition of a planet's atmospheres. Their ability to reflect incoming light prevents energy fro…
