Latitudinal variations in methane abundance, aerosol opacity and aerosol scattering efficiency in Neptune's atmosphere determined from VLT/MUSE
Patrick G. J. Irwin, Jack Dobinson, Arjuna James +11
Spectral observations of Neptune made in 2019 with the MUSE instrument at the Very Large Telescope in Chile have been analysed to determine the spatial variation of aerosol scatter…
Spectral determination of the colour and vertical structure of dark spots in Neptune's atmosphere
Patrick G. J. Irwin, Jack Dobinson, Arjuna James. Michael H. Wong +12
Previous observations of dark vortices in Neptune's atmosphere, such as Voyager-2's Great Dark Spot, have been made in only a few, broad-wavelength channels, which has hampered eff…
Latitudinal variation of methane mole fraction above clouds in Neptune's atmosphere from VLT/MUSE-NFM: Limb-darkening reanalysis
P. G. J. Irwin, J. Dobinson, A. James +5
We present a reanalysis of visible/near-infrared (480-930 nm) observations of Neptune, made in 2018 with the MUSE instrument at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Narrow Field Adapt…
Hiding in the Shadows II: Collisional Dust as Exoplanet Markers
Jack Dobinson, Zoe M. Leinhardt, Stefan Lines +3
Observations of the youngest planets (1-10 Myr for a transitional disk) will increase the accuracy of our planet formation models. Unfortunately, observations of such planets…
Numerically Predicted Indirect Signatures of Terrestrial Planet Formation
Zoë M. Leinhardt, Jack Dobinson, Philip J. Carter +1
The intermediate phases of planet formation are not directly observable due to lack of emission from planetesimals. Planet formation is, however, a dynamically active process resul…
Hiding in the Shadows: Searching for Planets in Pre--transitional and Transitional Disks
Jack Dobinson, Zoë M. Leinhardt, Sarah E. Dodson-Robinson +1
Transitional and pre--transitional disks can be explained by a number of mechanisms. This work aims to find a single observationally detectable marker that would imply a planetary…
