A JWST transiting survey of FGK stellar limb darkening: empirical evidence for quadratic laws and atmospheric model comparisons
David K. Sing, Joshua D. Lothringer, Jeff A. Valenti +11
We present a study of stellar limb-darkening using JWST transit observations of seven exoplanets orbiting FGK host stars, spanning 4200-6800 K. The wide wavelength coverage and hig…
A Clearer View of HAT-P-1 b: JWST NIRSpec G395H Reveals Water, Carbon Dioxide, and Possibly Hydrogen Sulfide
Reza Ashtari, Stephen P. Schmidt, Guangwei Fu +16
As part of JWST's Exoplanet Grand Tour Survey, we use panchromatic transmission spectroscopy to connect HAT-P-1 b's previously studied optical and near-infrared atmosphere to the l…
Mitigating Charge Migration in JWST NIRISS Reveals That KELT-7 b is a Metal-enriched Ultra-hot Jupiter Orbiting a Young Metal-rich Star
Stephen P. Schmidt, Erin M. May, Joshua D. Lothringer +19
We present the first panchromatic JWST transmission spectrum of an ultra-hot Jupiter, combining NIRISS and NIRSpec observations to constrain KELT-7\,b's atmospheric properties. We…
Overcast mornings and clear evenings in hot Jupiter exoplanet atmospheres
Guangwei Fu, Sagnick Mukherjee, Kevin B. Stevenson +10
Aerosols is an old topic in the young field of exoplanet atmospheres. Understanding what they are, how they form, and where they go has long provided a fertile playground for theor…
