Early Release Science of the exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRISS

Adina D. Feinstein, Michael Radica, Luis Welbanks +86

Transmission spectroscopy provides insight into the atmospheric properties and consequently the formation history, physics, and chemistry of transiting exoplanets. However, obtaini…

Early Release Science of the exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRCam

Eva-Maria Ahrer, Kevin B. Stevenson, Megan Mansfield +96

Measuring the metallicity and carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio in exoplanet atmospheres is a fundamental step towards constraining the dominant chemical processes at work and, if in eq…

Early Release Science of the exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRSpec PRISM

Z. Rustamkulov, D. K. Sing, S. Mukherjee +91

Transmission spectroscopy of exoplanets has revealed signatures of water vapor, aerosols, and alkali metals in a few dozen exoplanet atmospheres. However, these previous inferences…

Identification of carbon dioxide in an exoplanet atmosphere

The JWST Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Team, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Lili Alderson +129

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a key chemical species that is found in a wide range of planetary atmospheres. In the context of exoplanets, CO2 is an indicator of the metal enrichment (i.…

The Hubble PanCET Program: A Featureless Transmission Spectrum for WASP-29b and Evidence of Enhanced Atmospheric Metallicity on WASP-80b

Ian Wong, Yayaati Chachan, Heather A. Knutson +19

We present a uniform analysis of transit observations from the Hubble Space Telescope and Spitzer Space Telescope of two warm gas giants orbiting K-type stars - WASP-29b and WASP-8…

A retrieval challenge exercise for the Ariel mission

Joanna K. Barstow, Quentin Changeat, Katy L. Chubb +5

The Ariel mission, due to launch in 2029, will obtain spectroscopic information for 1000 exoplanets, providing an unprecedented opportunity for comparative exoplanetology. Retrieva…

Diurnal variations in the stratosphere of the ultrahot giant exoplanet WASP-121b

Thomas Mikal-Evans, David K. Sing, Joanna K. Barstow +9

The temperature profile of a planetary atmosphere is a key diagnostic of radiative and dynamical processes governing the absorption, redistribution, and emission of energy. Observa…
