What's Inside Matters: The Effect of Oxygen Fugacity and Initial Volatile Abundance on the Atmospheres of the TRAPPIST-1 Planets
Junellie Perez, Laura K. Schaefer, Edward Schwieterman +3
The TRAPPIST-1 planets have become prime targets for studying the atmospheric and geophysical properties of planets around M-dwarf stars. To effectively identify their atmospheric…
Chemistry, Climate, and Transmission Spectra of TRAPPIST-1 e Explored with a Multimodel Sparse Sampled Ensemble
Eric T. Wolf, Edward W. Schwieterman, Jacob Haqq-Misra +6
TRAPPIST-1 e is one of a few habitable zone exoplanets that is amenable to characterization in the near term. In this study our motivations are both scientific and technical. Our t…
JWST-TST DREAMS: The Nightside Emission and Chemistry of WASP-17b
Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Kristin S. Sotzen, Kevin B. Stevenson +24
Theoretical studies have suggested using planetary infrared excess (PIE) to detect and characterize the thermal emission of transiting and non-transiting exoplanets, however the PI…
K2-18b Does Not Meet The Standards of Evidence For Life
Kevin B. Stevenson, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, E. M. May +7
K2-18b, a temperate sub-Neptune, has garnered significant attention due to claims of possible biosignatures in its atmosphere. Low-confidence detections of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) a…
Wavelength Requirements for Life Detection via Reflected Light Spectroscopy of Rocky Exoplanets
Joshua Krissansen-Totton, Anna Grace Ulses, Maxwell Frissell +21
Searching for signs of life is a primary goal of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO). However, merely detecting oxygen, methane, or other widely discussed biosignatures is insuf…
Modern Earth-like Chemical Disequilibrium Biosignatures Are Challenging To Constrain Through Spectroscopic Retrievals
Amber Young, Tyler Robinson, Joshua Krissansen-Totton +4
Robust exoplanet characterization studies are underway, and the community is looking ahead toward developing observational strategies to search for life beyond our solar system. Wi…
Examining the Potential for Methyl Halide Accumulation and Detectability in Possible Hycean-Type Atmospheres
Michaela Leung, Shang-Min Tsai, Edward W Schwieterman +2
Some sub-Neptune planets may host habitable conditions; for example "Hycean" worlds with H2 envelopes over liquid water oceans can maintain potentially hospitable pressures and tem…
