Precise measurement of WASP-31 b's Rossiter-McLaughlin effect and characterization of the planet transmission spectra
M. Steiner, V. Bourrier, D. Ehrenreich +23
Context. Hot Jupiters are ideal natural laboratories to investigate atmospheric composition and dynamics. However, high-resolution transmission spectroscopy is currently limited by…
The star HIP 41378 potentially misaligned with its cohort of long-period planets
S. Grouffal, A. Santerne, V. Bourrier +29
The obliquity between the stellar spin axis and the planetary orbit, detected via the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect, is a tracer of the formation history of planetary systems. Wh…
The ESPRESSO transmission spectrum of HD189733b : Extracting the planetary sodium and lithium signatures amid stellar contamination
D. Mounzer, W. Dethier, C. Lovis +20
While transmission spectroscopy has allowed us to detect many atomic and molecular species in exoplanet atmospheres, the improvement in resolution and signal-to-noise ratio enabled…
Time Resolved Absorption of Six Chemical Species With MAROON-X Points to Strong Drag in the Ultra Hot Jupiter TOI-1518 b
A. Simonnin, V. Parmentier, J. P. Wardenier +27
Wind dynamics play a pivotal role in governing transport processes within planetary atmospheres, influencing atmospheric chemistry, cloud formation, and the overall energy budget.…
Titanium chemistry of WASP-121 b with ESPRESSO in 4-UT mode
B. Prinoth, J. V. Seidel, H. J. Hoeijmakers +15
Transit spectroscopy usually relies on the integration of one or several transits to achieve the S/N necessary to resolve spectral features. Consequently, high-S/N observations of…
Vertical structure of an exoplanet's atmospheric jet stream
Julia V. Seidel, Bibiana Prinoth, Lorenzo Pino +21
Ultra-hot Jupiters, an extreme class of planets not found in our solar system, provide a unique window into atmospheric processes. The extreme temperature contrasts between their d…
