The Roman Coronagraph Community Participation Program: trials and triumphs of designing an observing program for a technology demonstration instrument

Schuyler G. Wolff, Vanessa P. Bailey, Justin Hom +19

The Coronagraph Instrument onboard the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope serves as a crucial technology pathfinder for the Habitable Worlds Observatory, with on-sky verification of…

ForMoSA: Forward Modeling tool for Spectral Analysis

ForMoSA Collaboration, Simon Petrus, Paulina Palma-Bifani +9

ForMoSA (FORward MOdeling tool for Spectral Analysis) is an open-source Python package to fit spectroscopic and photometric observations using a Bayesian framework. It can utilize…

Latitudinal chemical and cloud variations in the atmosphere of a brown dwarf

Benjamin Charnay, Sam de Regt, Matthieu Ravet +8

Brown dwarfs are massive analogues of extrasolar giant planets. Compared to exoplanets whose observations are generally limited by the presence of their bright host star, brown dwa…

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…

Next-generation Exo-REM atmospheric models: application to VHS 1256 b to emulate patchy clouds

Alice Radcliffe, Benjamin Charnay, Anne-Marie Lagrange +7

Condensate clouds are a defining feature of brown dwarf and exoplanet atmospheres, producing a broad range of colours on the CMD and giving rise to spectral features such as the di…

Oxygen and nitrogen isotopologues on cold COCONUTS-2b observed with MIRI/MRS

H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews, P. Mollière +12

Linking the composition of gas giant planets to their formation paths has long been a goal in exoplanet science. Especially, cold gas giants with temperatures below 500K have…

Panchromatic View of the Frigid Jovian Exoplanet COCONUTS-2 b

Matthieu Ravet, Mickaël Bonnefoy, Gaël Chauvin +24

We use a high signal-to-noise MIRI-LRS spectrum (5.45 - 11 m, R ) of COCONUTS-2~b revealing prominent molecular features of HO, CH and NH. This dataset…

Cold and eccentric: a high-spectral resolution view of 51 Eri b with VLT/HiRISE

A. Denis, A. Vigan, G. Chauvin +35

Discovered almost 10 years ago, the giant planet 51 Eridani b is one of the least separated (0.2 arcsec) and faintest (J = 19.74 mag) directly imaged exoplanets known to date. Its…

Multi-modal atmospheric characterization of Pictoris b: Adding high-resolution continuum spectra from GRAVITY

M. Ravet, M. Bonnefoy, G. Chauvin +24

We present the first VLTI/GRAVITY observations at R of Pic b. These four high S/N (20) K-band spectra conserve both the pseudo-continuum and molecular absorp…

The mid-infrared spectrum of Pictoris b. First VLTI/MATISSE interferometric observations of an exoplanet

M. Houllé, F. Millour, P. Berio +46

Few spectra of directly-imaged exoplanets have been obtained in the mid-infrared (> 3 m). This region is particularly rich in molecular spectral signatures, whose measurements c…

X-SHYNE: X-Shooter spectra of young exoplanet analogs II. Presentation and analysis of the full library

Simon Petrus, Gaël Chauvin, Mickaël Bonnefoy +29

The X-SHYNE library is a homogeneous sample of 43 medium-resolution (R=8000) infrared (0.3-2.5um) spectra of young (<500Myr), low-mass (<20Mjup), and cold (Teff=600-2000K) isolated…

The planetary-mass-limit VLT/SINFONI library: Spectral extraction and atmospheric characterization via forward modeling

P. Palma-Bifani, M. Bonnefoy, G. Chauvin +9

We aim to deepen our understanding of the M-L transition on planetary-mass companions and isolated brown dwarfs, and search for evidence of possible differences between these two p…

Characterization of AF Lep b at high spectral resolution with VLT/HiRISE

A. Denis, A. Vigan, J. Costes +41

Since the recent discovery of the directly imaged super-Jovian planet AF Lep b, several studies have been conducted to characterize its atmosphere and constrain its orbital paramet…

Turning Spherical Cows into Spherical Cheeses: a bold and flavourful re-Interpretation of the Moon's spectrum

Vincent Yariv, Matthieu Ravet

"Everyone knows the moon is made of cheese..." This line, famously uttered by Wallace to his canine sidekick Gromit in the 80s classic, may be one of the most cruelly underapprecia…
