The Complete transmission spectrum of WASP-39b with a precise water constraint

Hannah R. Wakeford, David K. Sing, Drake Deming +12

WASP-39b is a hot Saturn-mass exoplanet with a predicted clear atmosphere based on observations in the optical and infrared. Here we complete the transmission spectrum of the atmos…

Hubble PanCET: An isothermal day-side atmosphere for the bloated gas-giant HAT-P-32Ab

N. Nikolov, D. K. Sing, J. Goyal +20

We present a thermal emission spectrum of the bloated hot Jupiter HAT-P-32Ab from a single eclipse observation made in spatial scan mode with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) aboard…

The Very Low Albedo of WASP-12b From Spectral Eclipse Observations with

Taylor J. Bell, Nikolay Nikolov, Nicolas B. Cowan +11

We present an optical eclipse observation of the hot Jupiter WASP-12b using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. These spectra allow us to…

An ultrahot gas-giant exoplanet with a stratosphere

Thomas M. Evans, David K. Sing, Tiffany Kataria +24

Infrared radiation emitted from a planet contains information about the chemical composition and vertical temperature profile of its atmosphere. If upper layers are cooler than low…

VLT/FORS2 comparative transmission spectroscopy II: confirmation of a cloud-deck and Rayleigh scattering in WASP-31b, but no potassium?

Neale P. Gibson, Nikolay Nikolov, David K. Sing +4

We present transmission spectroscopy of the hot-Jupiter WASP-31b using FORS2 on the VLT during two primary transits. The observations cover a wavelength range of 400-840nm…

HST PanCET program: A Cloudy Atmosphere for the promising JWST target WASP-101b

H. R. Wakeford, K. B. Stevenson, N. K. Lewis +19

We present results from the first observations of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Panchromatic Comparative Exoplanet Treasury (PanCET) program for WASP-101b, a highly inflated hot…
