The Days Drag On on WASP-121 b: Interpreting its NIRISS Spectroscopic Phase Curve with General Circulation Models
Robert C. Frazier, Emily Rauscher, Jared Splinter +18
Ultra-hot Jupiters present extreme atmospheric phenomena not found in the Solar System. These planets' daysides experience strong temperature inversions, molecular species (includi…
Limb Asymmetries on WASP-39b: A Multi-GCM Comparison of Chemistry, Clouds, and Hazes
Maria E. Steinrueck, Arjun B. Savel, Duncan A. Christie +27
With JWST, observing separate spectra of the morning and evening limbs of hot Jupiters has finally become a reality. The first such observation was reported for WASP-39b, where the…
First Results from WINERED: Detection of Emission Lines from Neutral Iron and a Combined Set of Trace Species on the Dayside of WASP-189 b
Lennart van Sluijs, Emily Rauscher, Eliza M. -R. Kempton +9
Ground and space-based observations have revealed that Ultra Hot Jupiters (UHJs,~) typically have inverted thermal profiles, while cooler hot Jupiters…
Assessing robustness and bias in 1D retrievals of 3D Global Circulation Models at high spectral resolution: a WASP-76 b simulation case study in emission
Lennart van Sluijs, Hayley Beltz, Isaac Malsky +4
High-resolution spectroscopy (HRS) of exoplanet atmospheres has successfully detected many chemical species and is quickly moving toward detailed characterization of the chemical a…
A Panchromatic Characterization of the Evening and Morning Atmosphere of WASP-107 b: Composition and Cloud Variations, and Insight into the Effect of Stellar Contamination
Matthew M. Murphy, Thomas G. Beatty, Everett Schlawin +16
Limb-resolved transmission spectroscopy has the potential to transform our understanding of exoplanetary atmospheres. By separately measuring the transmission spectra of the evenin…
An Analysis of Spitzer Phase Curves for WASP-121b and WASP-77Ab
Brian Davenport, Thomas Kennedy, E. M. May +6
We present analyses of Spitzer InfraRed Array Camera (IRAC) 3.6 m and 4.5 m phase curve observations of hot Jupiters WASP-77Ab and WASP-121b. For WASP-121b, we find amplitu…
