Hot Rocks Survey V: Secondary Eclipse Photometry of GJ 3473 b with JWST/MIRI
Måns Holmberg, Hannah Diamond-Lowe, João M. Mendonça +16
JWST is transforming our ability to characterise small exoplanets, from sub-Neptunes to rocky worlds. A key open question is whether highly irradiated rocky planets can retain atmo…
JWST NIRSpec finds no clear signs of an atmosphere on TOI-1685 b
Chloe E. Fisher, Matthew J. Hooton, Amélie Gressier +21
Determining the prevalence of atmospheres on terrestrial planets is a core objective in exoplanetary science. While M dwarf systems offer a promising opportunity, conclusive observ…
Hot Rocks Survey IV: Emission from LTT 3780 b is consistent with a bare rock
Natalie H. Allen, Néstor Espinoza, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +19
It is an open question whether small planets around M dwarfs are able to maintain atmospheres. The Hot Rocks Survey aims to address this question by observing 9 rocky exoplanets or…
Hot Rocks Survey III: A deep eclipse for LHS 1140c and a new Gaussian process method to account for correlated noise in individual pixels
Mark Fortune, Neale P. Gibson, Hannah Diamond-Lowe +14
Time-series photometry at mid-infrared wavelengths is becoming a common technique to search for atmospheres around rocky exoplanets. This method constrains the brightness temperatu…
