The SPACE Program II: No discernible spectral features in the transmission spectrum of the sub-Neptune HD 191939 b observed with HST/WFC3
Cyril Gapp, Lorena Acuña-Aguirre, Reza Ashtari +17
The atmospheres of sub-Neptunes provide a window into their internal structure and history, shedding light on the origin of this common, but enigmatic, class of exoplanets. However…
The panchromatic JWST dayside spectrum of WASP-121 b reveals a refractory-rich formation
K. Angelique Kahle, Paul Mollière, Laura Kreidberg +16
One path to understand how planets form is to link their present-day atmospheric composition to predictions from planet formation models. For the hottest planets, the abundances of…
Atmospheric asymmetries in WASP-121 b revealed by rotational transits detected with JWST
Cyril Gapp, Aurélien Falco, Thomas M. Evans-Soma +6
Close-in exoplanets are tidally locked to their host star and thus exhibit extreme atmospheric temperature gradients. It has been theorized that the fraction of star light absorbed…
Possible Evidence for the Presence of Volatiles on the Warm Super-Earth TOI-270 b
Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Björn Benneke, Joshua Krissansen-Totton +25
The search for atmospheres on rocky exoplanets is a crucial step in understanding the processes driving atmosphere formation, retention, and loss. Past studies have revealed the ex…
The SPACE Program. I. The featureless spectrum of HD 86226 c challenges sub-Neptune atmosphere trends
K. Angelique Kahle, Jasmina Blecic, Reza Ashtari +26
Sub-Neptune exoplanets are the most abundant type of planet known today. As they do not have a Solar System counterpart, many open questions exist about their composition and forma…
WASP-121b's transmission spectrum observed with JWST/NIRSpec G395H reveals thermal dissociation and SiO in the atmosphere
Cyril Gapp, Thomas M. Evans-Soma, Joanna K. Barstow +8
WASP-121b has been established as a benchmark ultrahot Jupiter, serving as a laboratory for the atmospheric chemistry and dynamics of strongly irradiated extrasolar gas giants. Her…
SiO and a super-stellar C/O ratio in the atmosphere of the giant exoplanet WASP-121b
Thomas M. Evans-Soma, David K. Sing, Joanna K. Barstow +15
Refractory elements such as iron, magnesium, and silicon can be detected in the atmospheres of ultrahot giant planets. This provides an opportunity to quantify the amount of refrac…
Escaping Helium and a Highly Muted Spectrum Suggest a Metal-Enriched Atmosphere on Sub-Neptune GJ3090b from JWST Transit Spectroscopy
Eva-Maria Ahrer, Michael Radica, Caroline Piaulet-Ghorayeb +27
Sub-Neptunes, the most common planet type, remain poorly understood. Their atmospheres are expected to be diverse, but their compositions are challenging to determine, even with JW…
Refractory and Volatile Species in the UV-to-IR Transmission Spectrum of Ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-178b with HST and JWST
Joshua D. Lothringer, Katherine A. Bennett, David K. Sing +17
The atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters are unique compared to other planets because of the presence of both refractory and volatile gaseous species, enabling a new lens to constrain…
Statistical trends in JWST transiting exoplanet atmospheres
Guangwei Fu, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +13
Our brains are hardwired for pattern recognition as correlations are useful for predicting and understanding nature. As more exoplanet atmospheres are being characterized with JWST…
JWST/NIRISS reveals the water-rich "steam world" atmosphere of GJ 9827 d
Caroline Piaulet-Ghorayeb, Bjorn Benneke, Michael Radica +30
With sizable volatile envelopes but smaller radii than the solar system ice giants, sub-Neptunes have been revealed as one of the most common types of planet in the galaxy. While t…
