A ground-based NUV secondary eclipse observation of KELT-9b
Matthew J. Hooton, Christopher A. Watson, Ernst J. W. de Mooij +2
KELT-9b is a recently discovered exoplanet with a 1.49 d orbit around a B9.5/A0-type star. The unparalleled levels of UV irradiation it receives from its host star put KELT-9b in i…
Atomic iron and titanium in the atmosphere of the exoplanet KELT-9b
H. Jens Hoeijmakers, David Ehrenreich, Kevin Heng +10
The chemical composition of an exoplanet is a key ingredient in constraining its formation history. Iron is the most abundant transition metal, but has never been directly detected…
Exoplanet science with a space-based mid-infrared nulling interferometer
Sascha P. Quanz, Jens Kammerer, Denis Defrère +3
One of the long-term goals of exoplanet science is the (atmospheric) characterization of a large sample (>100) of terrestrial planets to assess their potential habitability and ove…
The Peculiar Atmospheric Chemistry of KELT-9b
Daniel Kitzmann, Kevin Heng, Paul B. Rimmer +6
The atmospheric temperatures of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b straddle the transition between gas giants and stars, and therefore between two traditionally distinct regimes of atmo…
Analytical Models of Exoplanetary Atmospheres. VI. Full Solutions for Improved Two-stream Radiative Transfer Including Direct Stellar Beam
Kevin Heng, Matej Malik, Daniel Kitzmann
Two-stream radiative transfer is a workhorse in the Earth, planetary and exoplanetary sciences due to its simplicity and ease of implementation. However, a longstanding limitation…
