Potassium detection in the clear atmosphere of a hot-Jupiter: FORS2 transmission spectroscopy of WASP-17b
Elyar Sedaghati, Henri M J Boffin, Tereza Jeřabková +9
We present FORS2 (attached to ESO's Very Large Telescope) observations of the exoplanet WASP-17b during its primary transit, for the purpose of differential spectrophotometry analy…
Exploring Biases of Atmospheric Retrievals in Simulated JWST Transmission Spectra of Hot Jupiters
M. Rocchetto, I. P. Waldmann, O. Venot +2
With a scheduled launch in October 2018, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is expected to revolutionise the field of atmospheric characterization of exoplanets. The broad wavel…
Influence of Stellar Flares on the Chemical Composition of Exoplanets and Spectra
Olivia Venot, Marco Rocchetto, Shaun Carl +2
More than 3000 exoplanets have been detected so far, and more and more spectroscopic observations of exoplanets are performed. Future instruments are eagerly awaited as they will b…
Signs of a faint disc population at polluted white dwarfs
Carolina Bergfors, Jay Farihi, Patrick Dufour +1
Observations of atmospheric metals and dust discs around white dwarfs provide important clues to the fate of terrestrial planetary systems around intermediate mass stars. We presen…
The frequency and infrared brightness of circumstellar discs at white dwarfs
M. Rocchetto, J. Farihi, B. T. Gaensicke +1
White dwarfs whose atmospheres are polluted by terrestrial-like planetary debris have become a powerful and unique tool to study evolved planetary systems. This paper presents resu…
Tau-REx I: A next generation retrieval code for exoplanetary atmospheres
Ingo P. Waldmann, Giovanna Tinetti, Marco Rocchetto +3
Spectroscopy of exoplanetary atmospheres has become a well established method for the characterisation of extrasolar planets. We here present a novel inverse retrieval code for exo…
