A Sulfur-Rich Atmosphere for the Young Jupiter Analog AF Lep b Reveals Significant Solid Accretion
Jerry W. Xuan, William O. Balmer, Yayaati Chachan +25
AF Lep b is one of the closest analogs to Jupiter in terms of mass () and semi-major axis ( AU) amenable to spectroscopic characterization. We present JWST/NIR…
Hydrogen airglow from an escaping ultrahot Jupiter atmosphere
Yapeng Zhang, Chenliang Huang, Aaron Householder +17
Intense high-energy irradiation of close-in gaseous exoplanets drives the rapid escape of their atmospheres, fundamentally shaping planetary demographics. While atmospheric loss is…
CO and potential variability in Pictoris b with GRAVITY+
Antonia von Stauffenberg, Jonas Sauter, Paul Mollière +18
The CO/CO ratio was introduced as an indicator for where in the disk a planet has formed. Previously a lower value compared to the host star's was suggested to show t…
Chemical Abundances Shape History (CASH). I. A Link between Giant Planets Orbital Periods and Host Stellar C/O Ratios
Ruisheng Zhang, Ji-Wei Xie, Mengrui Pan +5
The chemical abundance of host stars plays a pivotal role in shaping the formation history of planetary systems, yet the influence of elements beyond iron remains poorly understood…
The compositions of the HR 8799 planets reflect accretion of both solids and metal-enriched gas
Jerry W. Xuan, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Yayaati Chachan +24
With four giant planets (, $T_\rm{eff}\sim900-1200$ K) orbiting between 15-70 au, HR 8799 provides an unparalleled testbed for studying giant planet formatio…
Worlds Next Door. IV. Mapping the Late Stages of Giant Planet Evolution with a Precise Dynamical Mass and Luminosity for Ind Ab
Aniket Sanghi, William Thompson, James Mang +21
We present new JWST/NIRCam 4-5 m (F410M, F430M) and JWST/MIRI 18-25 m (F1800W, F2100W, F2550W) imaging detections of the nearby (3.6 pc) cold (275 K) gas giant exoplanet …
Extreme winds on the emerging dayside of an ultrahot Jupiter
Yapeng Zhang, Joost P. Wardenier, Aaron Householder +16
High-resolution spectroscopy provides a unique opportunity to directly probe atmospheric dynamics by resolving Doppler shifts of planetary signal as a function of orbital phases. U…
Distinct Rotational Evolution of Giant Planets and Brown Dwarf Companions
Chih-Chun Hsu, Jason J. Wang, Jerry W. Xuan +27
We present a rotational velocity (vsini) survey of 32 stellar/substellar objects and giant planets using Keck/KPIC high-resolution spectroscopy, including 6 giant planets (2-7 M$_\…
