Variable X-ray flux may explain variable helium escape from the habitable-zone exoplanet LHS 1140b

Collin Cherubim, Tim Cunningham, Jason A. Dittmann

A central goal in exoplanet science is to understand the conditions under which potentially habitable worlds retain atmospheres. This question is of special interest for worlds orb…

Helium escaping from the atmosphere of a nearby rocky exoplanet orbiting in a habitable zone

Collin Cherubim, Shreyas Vissapragada, Tim Cunningham +13

Observations of highly irradiated gas giant exoplanets have shown helium escaping from their atmospheres. There is limited evidence for atmospheres on rocky exoplanets, perhaps bec…

HD 35843: A Sun-like star hosting a long period sub-Neptune and inner super-Earth

Katharine Hesse, Ismael Mireles, François Bouchy +52

We report the discovery and confirmation of two planets orbiting the metal-poor Sun-like star, HD 35843 (TOI 4189). HD 35843 c is a temperate sub-Neptune transiting planet with an…

Limits on the atmospheric metallicity and aerosols of the sub-Neptune GJ 3090 b from high-resolution CRIRES+ spectroscopy

Luke T. Parker, João M. Mendonça, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +9

The sub-Neptune planets have no solar system analogues, and their low bulk densities suggest thick atmospheres containing degenerate quantities of volatiles and H/He, surrounding c…

Hubble Space Telescope transmission spectroscopy for the temperate sub-Neptune TOI-270d: a possible hydrogen-rich atmosphere containing water vapour

Thomas Mikal-Evans, Nikku Madhusudhan, Jason Dittmann +6

TOI-270d is a temperate sub-Neptune discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) around a bright (J=9.1mag) M3V host star. With an approximate radius of 2RE and e…

The Featureless HST/WFC3 Transmission Spectrum of the Rocky Exoplanet GJ 1132b: No Evidence For A Cloud-Free Primordial Atmosphere and Constraints on Starspot Contamination

Jessica E. Libby-Roberts, Zachory K. Berta-Thompson, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +10

Orbiting a M dwarf 12 pc away, the transiting exoplanet GJ 1132b is a prime target for transmission spectroscopy. With a mass of 1.7 Earth masses and radius of 1.1 Earth radii, GJ…
