Early Release Science of the exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRISS
Adina D. Feinstein, Michael Radica, Luis Welbanks +86
Transmission spectroscopy provides insight into the atmospheric properties and consequently the formation history, physics, and chemistry of transiting exoplanets. However, obtaini…
Early Release Science of the exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRCam
Eva-Maria Ahrer, Kevin B. Stevenson, Megan Mansfield +96
Measuring the metallicity and carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio in exoplanet atmospheres is a fundamental step towards constraining the dominant chemical processes at work and, if in eq…
Early Release Science of the Exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRSpec G395H
Lili Alderson, Hannah R. Wakeford, Munazza K. Alam +89
Measuring the abundances of carbon and oxygen in exoplanet atmospheres is considered a crucial avenue for unlocking the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems. Access to a…
Photochemically-produced SO in the atmosphere of WASP-39b
Shang-Min Tsai, Elspeth K. H. Lee, Diana Powell +82
Photochemistry is a fundamental process of planetary atmospheres that regulates the atmospheric composition and stability. However, no unambiguous photochemical products have been…
Importance of Sample Selection in Exoplanet Atmosphere Population Studies
Natasha E. Batalha, Angie Wolfgang, Johanna Teske +5
Understanding planet formation requires robust population studies, which are designed to reveal trends in planet properties. In this work, we aim to determine if different methods…
Effects of Rotation on the Spectra of Brown Dwarfs
Mikhail Lipatov, Timothy D. Brandt, Natasha E. Batalha
Measured rotational speeds of giant planets and brown dwarfs frequently constitute appreciable fractions of the breakup limit, resulting in centrifugal expansion of these objects a…
Probing the Extent of Vertical Mixing in Brown Dwarf Atmospheres with Disequilibrium Chemistry
Sagnick Mukherjee, Jonathan J. Fortney, Natasha E. Batalha +5
Evidence of disequilibrium chemistry due to vertical mixing in the atmospheres of many T and Y-dwarfs has been inferred due to enhanced mixing ratios of CO and reduced NH. Atmo…
Design of SCALES: A 2-5 Micron Coronagraphic Integral Field Spectrograph for Keck Observatory
Andrew Skemer, R. Deno Stelter, Stephanie Sallum +49
We present the design of SCALES (Slicer Combined with Array of Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy) a new 2-5 micron coronagraphic integral field spectrograph under construction fo…
PICASO 3.0: A One-Dimensional Climate Model for Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs
Sagnick Mukherjee, Natasha E. Batalha, Jonathan J. Fortney +1
Upcoming James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations will allow us to study exoplanet and brown dwarf atmospheres in great detail. The physical interpretation of these upcoming…
Cloudy and Cloud-free Thermal Phase Curves with PICASO: Applications to WASP-43b
Nina Robbins-Blanch, Tiffany Kataria, Natasha E. Batalha +1
We present new functionality within PICASO, a state-of-the-art radiative transfer model for exoplanet and brown dwarf atmospheres, by developing a new pipeline that computes phase-…
Microphysics of Water Clouds in the Atmospheres of Y Dwarfs and Temperate Giant Planets
James Mang, Peter Gao, Callie E. Hood +4
Water clouds are expected to form on Y dwarfs and giant planets with equilibrium temperatures near or below that of Earth, drastically altering their atmospheric compositions and t…
