A Highly Reflective Atmosphere on the Lava World TOI-561b Revealed by JWST/NIRSpec Phase Curve
Samuel Boucher, Lisa Dang, Alex McGinty +15
Ultra-short period (USP) rocky planets are expected to be depleted of any substantial gaseous envelope due to the intense irradiation they receive from their host star, making the…
Constraining the lives and times of exoplanets through evolutionary Bayesian retrievals
Harrison Nicholls, Tim Lichtenberg, Ben Riegler +2
The paper introduces a Bayesian retrieval framework that models the time‑evolution of exoplanet interiors and atmospheres, allowing constraints on their formation histories and vol…
Sulfur photochemistry observationally traces mantle redox states of rocky planets
Ioannis Panagiotou, Tim Lichtenberg, Shang-Min Tsai +1
The study models how sulfur chemistry in rocky exoplanet atmospheres reflects the redox state of their mantles, showing that photochemical signatures of SO2 are detectable with JWS…
Atmospheric evolution through outgassing and escape on young molten rocky exoplanets
Emma Postolec, Tim Lichtenberg, Harrison Nicholls +2
The paper models how outgassing from a cooling magma ocean and atmospheric escape together shape the early atmospheres of rocky exoplanets, exploring how factors like stellar type,…
Reflation: redox-driven atmospheric inflation as tracer of super-Earth geochemistry
Lorenzo Cesario, Tim Lichtenberg, Mara Attia +3
The paper proposes that the redox state of a super‑Earth’s mantle can cause a temporary re‑inflation of its atmosphere by shifting outgassed volatiles from carbon‑rich to hydrogen‑…
Coupled atmospHere Interior modeL Intercomparison (CHILI). I. Evolutionary Modelling -- Primordial Magma Oceans of Earth and Venus
Harrison Nicholls, Joshua Krissansen-Totton, Tim Lichtenberg +22
Earth and Venus represent two evolutionary outcomes arising from initially molten 'magma ocean' periods, followed by lifetimes of chemical and geophysical divergence. Their physics…
