The atmosphere of the warm Neptune GJ 436 b probed with ESPRESSO
E. Herrero-Cisneros, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, J. Sanz-Forcada +21
Aims. We aim to identify the presence of atomic and molecular species in the upper atmosphere of the warm Neptune-sized transiting planet GJ 436 b, which has a radiative equilibriu…
Exploring the surface of HD 189733 via Doppler shadow analysis of planetary transits
E. C. Gonçalves, E. Cristo, W. Dethier +6
Transmission spectroscopy has greatly advanced the study of exoplanet atmospheres, but stellar surface heterogeneities can contaminate transit spectra. Characterising how stellar s…
The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South III: Seeing deeper into the metal depleted atmosphere of a gas-giant on the cusp of the hot to ultra-hot Jupiter transition
Vatsal Panwar, Matteo Brogi, Krishna Kanumalla +17
Ultra-hot Jupiters are a class of gas-giant exoplanets that show a peculiar combination of thermochemical properties in the form of molecular dissociation, atomic ionization, and i…
The NCORES Program: Precise planetary masses, null results, and insight into the planet mass distribution near the radius gap
David J. Armstrong, Ares Osborn, Remo Burn +39
NCORES was a large observing program on the ESO HARPS spectrograph, dedicated to measuring the masses of Neptune-like and smaller transiting planets discovered by the TESS satellit…
