Transmission Spectrum of the Benchmark Temperate Exo-Neptune TOI-1231 b
Subhajit Sarkar, Nikku Madhusudhan, Lorenzo Pica-Ciamarra +4
The JWST is revolutionizing our understanding of the temperate sub-Neptune population through atmospheric spectroscopy. The nature of these planets remains debated, as their bulk p…
A JWST Transmission Spectrum of the Temperate Sub-Neptune TOI-732 c
Frances E. Rigby, Nikku Madhusudhan, Subhajit Sarkar +3
In recent years, JWST has facilitated detections of carbon-bearing molecules in the atmospheres of temperate sub-Neptunes orbiting M dwarfs, ushering in a new era in the characteri…
A Systematic Search for Trace Molecules in the Atmosphere of Exoplanet K2-18 b
Lorenzo Pica-Ciamarra, Nikku Madhusudhan, Gregory J. Cooke +2
The first transmission spectrum of the habitable-zone sub-Neptune K2-18 b with JWST has opened a new avenue for atmospheric characterisation of temperate low-mass exoplanets. The o…
Towards a self-consistent evaluation of gas dwarf scenarios for temperate sub-Neptunes
Frances E. Rigby, Lorenzo Pica-Ciamarra, Måns Holmberg +6
The recent JWST detections of carbon-bearing molecules in a habitable-zone sub-Neptune have opened a new era in the study of low-mass exoplanets. The sub-Neptune regime spans a wid…
