Climate Transition to Temperate Nightside at High Atmosphere Mass
Evelyn Macdonald, Kristen Menou, Christopher Lee +1
Our recent work shows how M-Earth climates and transmission spectra depend on the amount of ice-free ocean on the planet's dayside and the mass of N2 in its atmosphere. M-Earths wi…
Water Vapour Transit Ambiguities for Habitable M-Earths
Evelyn Macdonald, Kristen Menou, Christopher Lee +1
We have shown in a recent study, using 3D climate simulations, that dayside land cover has a substantial impact on the climate of a synchronously rotating temperate rocky planet su…
TOI-4860 b, a short-period giant planet transiting an M3.5 dwarf
J. M. Almenara, X. Bonfils, E. M. Bryant +47
We report the discovery and characterisation of a giant transiting planet orbiting a nearby M3.5V dwarf (d = 80.4 pc, = 15.1 mag, =11.2 mag, R = 0.358 0.015 R$…
TOI-1452 b: SPIRou and TESS reveal a super-Earth in a temperate orbit transiting an M4 dwarf
Charles Cadieux, René Doyon, Mykhaylo Plotnykov +53
Exploring the properties of exoplanets near or inside the radius valley provides insights on the transition from the rocky super-Earths to the larger, hydrogen-rich atmosphere mini…
Compositional Turbulence and Layering in the Gaseous Envelopes of Forming Planets
Kristen Menou, Hong Tao Zhang
Differential settling and growth of dust grains impact the structure of the radiative envelopes of gaseous planets during formation. Sufficiently rapid dust growth can result in en…
Semi-Transparent Shear Turbulence in Hot Jupiter Atmospheres
Kristen Menou
Turbulent transport driven by secular shear instabilities can lead to enhanced vertical mixing in hot Jupiter atmospheres, impacting their cloudiness, chemistry and overall vertica…
