The Third Option: Color Phase Curves to Characterize the Atmospheres of Temperate Rocky Exoplanets

Drake Deming, Andrew Lincowski, Laura Kreidberg +6

Detecting and characterizing the atmospheres of rocky exoplanets has proven to be challenging for JWST. Transit spectroscopy of the TRAPPIST-1 planets has been impacted by the effe…

A carbon-rich atmosphere on a windy pulsar planet

Michael Zhang, Maya Beleznay, Timothy D. Brandt +17

A handful of enigmatic Jupiter-mass objects have been discovered orbiting pulsars. One such object, PSR\,J2322-2650b, uniquely resembles a hot Jupiter exoplanet due to its minimum…

The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South III: Seeing deeper into the metal depleted atmosphere of a gas-giant on the cusp of the hot to ultra-hot Jupiter transition

Vatsal Panwar, Matteo Brogi, Krishna Kanumalla +17

Ultra-hot Jupiters are a class of gas-giant exoplanets that show a peculiar combination of thermochemical properties in the form of molecular dissociation, atomic ionization, and i…

The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South II -- WASP-121 b has super-stellar C/O and refractory-to-volatile ratios

Peter C. B. Smith, Jorge A. Sanchez, Michael R. Line +19

A primary goal of exoplanet science is to measure the atmospheric composition of gas giants in order to infer their formation and migration histories. Common diagnostics for planet…
