ThousandWorlds: A benchmark for climate emulation of potentially habitable exoplanets
Edward T. Stevenson, Mei Ting Mak, Eric Wolf +4
The search for life beyond Earth will depend on detecting faint signatures in the atmospheres of potentially habitable exoplanets. Interpreting those signatures requires understand…
The climates and thermal emission spectra of prime nearby temperate rocky exoplanet targets
Tobi Hammond, Thaddeus D. Komacek, Ravi K. Kopparapu +9
Over the course of the past decade, advances in the radial velocity and transit techniques have enabled the detection of rocky exoplanets in the habitable zones of nearby stars. Fu…
The VSPEC Collection: A suite of utilities to model spectroscopic phase curves of 3D exoplanet atmospheres in the presence of stellar variability
Ted M Johnson, Cameron Kelahan, Avi M. Mandell +5
We present the Variable Star PhasE Curve (VSPEC) Collection, a set of Python packages for simulating combined-light spectroscopic observations of 3-dimensional exoplanet atmosphere…
The Coupled Impacts of Atmospheric Composition and Obliquity on the Climate Dynamics of TRAPPIST-1e
Tobi Hammond, Thaddeus Komacek
Planets in multi-planet systems are expected to migrate inward as near-resonant chains, thus allowing them to undergo gravitational planet-planet interactions and possibly maintain…
