Evidence of a Clear Atmosphere for WASP-62b: the Only Known Transiting Gas Giant in the JWST Continuous Viewing Zone
Munazza K. Alam, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Ryan J. MacDonald +12
Exoplanets with cloud-free, haze-free atmospheres at the pressures probed by transmission spectroscopy represent a valuable opportunity for detailed atmospheric characterization an…
Into the UV: The Atmosphere of the Hot Jupiter HAT-P-41b Revealed
Nikole K. Lewis, Hannah R. Wakeford, Ryan J. MacDonald +19
For solar-system objects, ultraviolet spectroscopy has been critical in identifying sources for stratospheric heating and measuring the abundances of a variety of hydrocarbon and s…
The ExoMolOP Database: Cross-sections and k-tables for Molecules of Interest in High-Temperature Exoplanet Atmospheres
Katy L. Chubb, Marco Rocchetto, Sergei N. Yurchenko +7
A publicly available database of opacities for molecules of astrophysical interest, ExoMolOP, has been compiled for over 80 species, based on the latest line list data from the Exo…
Ground-Based Transmission Spectroscopy with FORS2: A featureless optical transmission spectrum and detection of HO for the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-103b
J. Wilson, N. P. Gibson, N. Nikolov +11
We report ground-based transmission spectroscopy of the highly irradiated and ultra-short period hot-Jupiter WASP-103b covering the wavelength range 400-600 nm using the…
The HST PanCET Program: An Optical to Infrared Transmission Spectrum of HAT-P-32Ab
Munazza K. Alam, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Nikolay Nikolov +14
We present a 0.3-5 micron transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-32Ab observed with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) and Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) instrumen…
Confirmation of water emission in the dayside spectrum of the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-121b
Thomas Mikal-Evans, David K. Sing, Tiffany Kataria +5
We present four new secondary eclipse observations for the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-121b acquired using the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3. The eclipse depth is measured t…
The Hubble PanCET program: Transit and Eclipse Spectroscopy of the Strongly Irradiated Giant Exoplanet WASP-76b
Guangwei Fu, Drake Deming, Joshua Lothringer +21
Ultra-hot Jupiters with equilibrium temperature greater than 2000K are uniquely interesting targets as they provide us crucial insights into how atmospheres behave under extreme co…
Outstanding Challenges of Exoplanet Atmospheric Retrievals
Joanna K. Barstow, Kevin Heng
Spectral retrieval has long been a powerful tool for interpreting planetary remote sensing observations. Flexible, parameterised, agnostic models are coupled with inversion algorit…
A comparison of exoplanet spectroscopic retrieval tools
Joanna K. Barstow, Quentin Changeat, Ryan Garland +3
Over the last several years, spectroscopic observations of transiting exoplanets have begun to uncover information about their atmospheres, including atmospheric composition and in…
Unveiling cloudy exoplanets: the influence of cloud model choices on retrieval solutions
Joanna K. Barstow
In recent years, it has become clear that a substantial fraction of transiting exoplanets have some form of aerosol present in their atmospheres. Transit spectroscopy - mostly of h…
