Information Content Analysis for Selection of Optimal JWST Observing Modes for Transiting Exoplanet Atmospheres
Natasha E. Batalha, Michael R. Line
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is nearing its launch date of 2018, and will undoubtedly revolutionize our knowledge of exoplanet atmospheres. While several studies have expl…
Near-Infrared Emission Spectrum of WASP-103b using Hubble Space Telescope/Wide Field Camera 3
Kimberly M. S. Cartier, Thomas G. Beatty, Ming Zhao +8
We present here our observations and analysis of the dayside emission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-103b. We observed WASP-103b during secondary eclipse using two visits of the…
Forward and Inverse Modeling of the Emission and Transmission Spectrum of GJ 436b: Investigating Metal Enrichment, Tidal Heating, and Clouds
Caroline V. Morley, Heather Knutson, Michael Line +5
The Neptune-mass GJ 436b is one of the most-studied transiting exoplanets with repeated measurements of both its thermal emission and transmission spectra. We build on previous stu…
On the Composition of Young, Directly Imaged Giant Planets
J. I. Moses, M. S. Marley, K. Zahnle +6
The past decade has seen significant progress on the direct detection and characterization of young, self-luminous giant planets at wide orbital separations from their host stars.…
Spitzer Phase Curve Constraints for WASP-43b at 3.6 and 4.5 microns
Kevin B. Stevenson, Michael R. Line, Jacob L. Bean +6
Previous measurements of heat redistribution efficiency (the ability to transport energy from a planet's highly irradiated dayside to its eternally dark nightside) show considerabl…
The Impact of Non-Uniform Thermal Structure on the Interpretation of Exoplanet Emission Spectra
Y. Katherina Feng, Michael R. Line, Jonathan J. Fortney +4
The determination of atmospheric structure and molecular abundances of planetary atmospheres via spectroscopy involves direct comparisons between models and data. While varying in…
