Life Beyond the Solar System: Remotely Detectable Biosignatures
Shawn Domagal-Goldman, Nancy Y. Kiang, Niki Parenteau +38
For the first time in human history, we will soon be able to apply the scientific method to the question "Are We Alone?" The rapid advance of exoplanet discovery, planetary systems…
Detection of a Westward Hotspot Offset in the Atmosphere of a Hot Gas Giant CoRoT-2b
Lisa Dang, Nicolas B. Cowan, Joel C. Schwartz +9
Short-period planets exhibit day-night temperature contrasts of hundreds to thousands of degrees K. They also exhibit eastward hotspot offsets whereby the hottest region on the pla…
A comparative study of WASP-67b and HAT-P-38b from WFC3 data
Giovanni Bruno, Nikole K. Lewis, Kevin B. Stevenson +12
Atmospheric temperature and planetary gravity are thought to be the main parameters affecting cloud formation in giant exoplanet atmospheres. Recent attempts to understand cloud fo…
Forecasting the Impact of Stellar Activity on Transiting Exoplanet Spectra
Robert T. Zellem, Mark R. Swain, Gael Roudier +8
Exoplanet host star activity, in the form of unocculted star spots or faculae, alters the observed transmission and emission spectra of the exoplanet. This effect can be exacerbate…
Spitzer Observations of Exoplanets Discovered with The Kepler K2 Mission
Charles Beichman, John Livingston, Michael Werner +14
We have used the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope} to observe two transiting planetary systems orbiting low mass stars discovered in the \Kepler \Ktwo mission. The system K2-3 (EPIC 20…
Uniform Atmospheric Retrieval Analysis of Ultracool Dwarfs I: Characterizing Benchmarks, Gl570D and HD3651B
Michael R. Line, Johanna Teske, Ben Burningham +2
Interpreting the spectra of brown dwarfs is key to determining the fundamental physical and chemical processes occurring in their atmospheres. Powerful Bayesian atmospheric retriev…
