Coupled atmospHere Interior modeL Intercomparison (CHILI). I. Evolutionary Modelling -- Primordial Magma Oceans of Earth and Venus
Harrison Nicholls, Joshua Krissansen-Totton, Tim Lichtenberg +22
Earth and Venus represent two evolutionary outcomes arising from initially molten 'magma ocean' periods, followed by lifetimes of chemical and geophysical divergence. Their physics…
ThousandWorlds: A benchmark for climate emulation of potentially habitable exoplanets
Edward T. Stevenson, Mei Ting Mak, Eric Wolf +4
The search for life beyond Earth will depend on detecting faint signatures in the atmospheres of potentially habitable exoplanets. Interpreting those signatures requires understand…
Benchmarking Two Chemical Networks used in General Circulation Models of Hot Jupiters
D. A. Christie, M. Zamyatina, E. Hébrard +7
Chemical kinetics is becoming an increasingly vital component of hot Jupiter general circulation models (GCMs). Here we simulate the hot Jupiter WASP-96b using two chemical network…
BOWIE-ALIGN: Sub-solar C/O ratio and metallicity atmosphere of the misaligned hot Jupiter HAT-P-30b
Alastair B. Claringbold, Chloe E. Fisher, James Kirk +18
We present the JWST NIRSpec/G395H transmission spectrum of the misaligned hot Jupiter HAT-P-30b from 2.8--5.2 m as part of the BOWIE-ALIGN survey, a comparative survey designed…
BOWIE-ALIGN: Weak spectral features in KELT-7b's JWST NIRSpec/G395H transmission spectrum imply a high cloud deck or a low-metallicity atmosphere
Eva-Maria Ahrer, Charlotte Fairman, James Kirk +20
Hot Jupiters and their atmospheres are prime targets for transmission spectroscopy due to their extended atmospheres and the corresponding large signal-to-noise, providing the best…
The Impact of Different Haze Types on the Atmosphere and Observations of Hot Jupiters: 3D Simulations of HD 189733b, HD209458b and WASP-39b
Mei Ting Mak, Denis Sergeev, Nathan Mayne +6
We present the results from the simulations of the atmospheres of hot-Jupiters HD189733b, HD209458b and WASP-39b, assuming the presence of three different types of haze. Using a 3D…
