High-resolution detection of neutral oxygen and non-LTE effects in the atmosphere of KELT-9b

Francesco Borsa, Luca Fossati, Tommi Koskinen +2

Oxygen is a constituent of many of the most abundant molecules detected in exoplanetary atmospheres and a key ingredient for tracking how and where a planet formed. In particular,…

Energy deposition in Saturn's equatorial upper atmosphere

J. M. Chadney, T. T. Koskinen, X. Hu +6

We construct Saturn equatorial neutral temperature and density profiles of H, H, He, and CH, between 10 and 1 bar using measurements from Cassini's Ion Neutral Mass…

Non-local thermodynamic equilibrium effects determine the upper atmospheric temperature structure of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b

L. Fossati, M. E. Young, D. Shulyak +5

Several results indicate that the atmospheric temperature of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b in the main line formation region is a few thousand degrees higher than predicted by self…

A pole to pole pressure temperature map of Saturn's thermosphere from Cassini Grand Finale data

Zarah Brown, Tommi Koskinen, Ingo Mueller-Wodarg +3

Temperatures of the outer planet thermospheres exceed those predicted by solar heating alone by several hundred degrees. Enough energy is deposited at auroral regions to heat the e…
