JWST-TST DREAMS: Quartz Clouds in the Atmosphere of WASP-17b
David Grant, Nikole K. Lewis, Hannah R. Wakeford +39
Clouds are prevalent in many of the exoplanet atmospheres that have been observed to date. For transiting exoplanets, we know if clouds are present because they mute spectral featu…
Detection of Carbon Monoxide in the Atmosphere of WASP-39b Applying Standard Cross-Correlation Techniques to JWST NIRSpec G395H Data
Emma Esparza-Borges, Mercedes López-Morales, Jéa I. Adams Redai +30
Carbon monoxide was recently reported in the atmosphere of the hot Jupiter WASP-39b using the NIRSpec PRISM transit observation of this planet, collected as part of the JWST Transi…
Awesome SOSS: Transmission Spectroscopy of WASP-96b with NIRISS/SOSS
Michael Radica, Luis Welbanks, Néstor Espinoza +30
The future is now - after its long-awaited launch in December 2021, JWST began science operations in July 2022 and is already revolutionizing exoplanet astronomy. The Early Release…
The Hazy and Metal-Rich Atmosphere of GJ 1214 b Constrained by Near and Mid-Infrared Transmission Spectroscopy
Peter Gao, Anjali A. A. Piette, Maria E. Steinrueck +12
The near-infrared transmission spectrum of the warm sub-Neptune exoplanet GJ 1214 b has been observed to be flat and featureless, implying a high metallicity atmosphere with abunda…
High Tide or Riptide on the Cosmic Shoreline? A Water-Rich Atmosphere or Stellar Contamination for the Warm Super-Earth GJ~486b from JWST Observations
Sarah E. Moran, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +21
Planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are prime targets in the search for rocky exoplanet atmospheres. The small size of M dwarfs renders their planets exceptional targets for transmissio…
Spherical Harmonics for the 1D Radiative Transfer Equation II: Thermal Emission
Caoimhe M. Rooney, Natasha E. Batalha, Mark S. Marley
Approximate methods to estimate solutions to the radiative transfer equation are essential for the understanding of atmospheres of exoplanets and brown dwarfs. The simplest and mos…
Spherical Harmonics for the 1D Radiative Transfer Equation I: Reflected Light
Caoimhe M. Rooney, Natasha E. Batalha, Mark S. Marley
A significant challenge in radiative transfer theory for atmospheres of exoplanets and brown dwarfs is the derivation of computationally efficient methods that have adequate fideli…
The infrared colors of 51 Eridani b: micrometereoid dust or chemical disequilibrium?
Alexander Madurowicz, Sagnick Mukherjee, Natasha Batalha +3
We reanalyze near-infrared spectra of the young extrasolar giant planet 51 Eridani b which was originally presented in (Macintosh et al. 2015) and (Rajan et al. 2017) using modern…
A Catalogue of Exoplanet Atmospheric Retrieval Codes
Ryan J. MacDonald, Natasha E. Batalha
Exoplanet atmospheric retrieval is a computational technique widely used to infer properties of planetary atmospheres from remote spectroscopic observations. Retrieval codes typica…
A JWST transmission spectrum of a nearby Earth-sized exoplanet
J. Lustig-Yaeger, G. Fu, E. M. May +20
The critical first step in the search for life on exoplanets over the next decade is to determine whether rocky planets transiting small M-dwarf stars possess atmospheres and, if s…
Optical Properties of Organic Haze Analogues in Water-rich Exoplanet Atmospheres Observable with JWST
Chao He, Michael Radke, Sarah E. Moran +9
JWST has begun its scientific mission, which includes the atmospheric characterization of transiting exoplanets. Some of the first exoplanets to be observed by JWST have equilibriu…
