XUV Radiation from A-stars: Implications for Ultra-hot Jupiters
L. Fossati, T. Koskinen, J. D. Lothringer +3
Extremely irradiated, close-in planets to early-type stars might be prone to strong atmospheric escape. We review the literature showing that X-ray-to-optical measurements indicate…
Ground-based Spectroscopy of the Exoplanet XO-2b using a Systematic Wavelength Calibration
Kyle A. Pearson, Caitlin A. Griffith, Robert T. Zellem +2
Exoplanets orbiting close to their host star are expected to support a large ionosphere, which extends to larger pressures than witnessed in our Solar System. These ionospheres can…
Extremely Irradiated Hot Jupiters: Non-Oxide Inversions, H- Opacity, and Thermal Dissociation of Molecules
Joshua D. Lothringer, Travis Barman, Tommi Koskinen
Extremely irradiated hot Jupiters, exoplanets reaching dayside temperatures 2000 K, stretch our understanding of planetary atmospheres and the models we use to interpret obser…
Suppressed Far-UV Stellar Activity and Low Planetary Mass Loss in the WASP-18 System
L. Fossati, T. Koskinen, K. France +4
WASP-18 hosts a massive, very close-in Jupiter-like planet. Despite its young age (1 Gyr), the star presents an anomalously low stellar activity level: the measured logR'$_{\rm…
The Colorado Ultraviolet Transit Experiment (CUTE): A dedicated cubesat mission to study exoplanetary mass loss and magnetic fields
Brian T. Fleming, Kevin France, Nicholas Nell +10
The Colorado Ultraviolet Transit Experiment (CUTE) is a near-UV (2550 - 3300 Angstrom) 6U cubesat mission designed to monitor transiting hot Jupiters to quantify their atmospheric…
