A parameterised approach to disequilibrium retrievals in the JWST era: Application to NIRCam observations of HD 189733b

Jake Taylor, Shang-Min Tsai, Vivien Parmentier +2

Atmospheric retrievals are a widely used technique for inferring the physical and chemical properties of exoplanetary atmospheres from observed spectra. A common simplifying assump…

Super-Solar Metallicity and Tentative Evidence for Photochemistry on WASP-96b from JWST and Ground-Based VLT Transmission Spectroscopy

Michael Radica, Jake Taylor, Yoav Rotman +13

With its expanded wavelength coverage and increased precision compared to previous space-based observatories, JWST provides the opportunity to revisit benchmark planets and view th…

JWST NIRSpec finds no clear signs of an atmosphere on TOI-1685 b

Chloe E. Fisher, Matthew J. Hooton, Amélie Gressier +21

Determining the prevalence of atmospheres on terrestrial planets is a core objective in exoplanetary science. While M dwarf systems offer a promising opportunity, conclusive observ…

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…

Are there Spectral Features in the MIRI/LRS Transmission Spectrum of K2-18b?

Jake Taylor

Determining the composition of an exoplanet atmosphere relies on the presence of detectable spectral features. The strongest spectral features, including DMS, look approximately Ga…

BOWIE-ALIGN: Sub-stellar metallicity and carbon depletion in the aligned TrES-4b with JWST NIRSpec transmission spectroscopy

Annabella Meech, Alastair B. Claringbold, Eva-Maria Ahrer +19

The formation and migration history of a planet is expected to be imprinted in its atmosphere, in particular its carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio and metallicity. The BOWIE-ALIGN progr…

BOWIE-ALIGN: JWST reveals hints of planetesimal accretion and complex sulphur chemistry in the atmosphere of the misaligned hot Jupiter WASP-15b

James Kirk, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Alastair B. Claringbold +23

We present a transmission spectrum of the misaligned hot Jupiter WASP-15b from 2.8-5.2 microns observed with JWST's NIRSpec/G395H grating. Our high signal to noise data, which has…

BOWIE-ALIGN: How formation and migration histories of giant planets impact atmospheric compositions

Anna B. T. Penzlin, Richard A. Booth, James Kirk +15

Hot Jupiters present a unique opportunity for measuring how planet formation history shapes present-day atmospheric composition. However, due to the myriad pathways influencing com…

BOWIE-ALIGN: A JWST comparative survey of aligned vs misaligned hot Jupiters to test the dependence of atmospheric composition on migration history

James Kirk, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Anna B. T. Penzlin +19

A primary objective of exoplanet atmosphere characterisation is to learn about planet formation and evolution, however, this is challenged by degeneracies. To determine whether dif…
