Molecular line shape parameters for exoplanetary atmospheric applications
Sergey Yurchenko, Jonathan Tennyson, Emma J. Barton
We describe the recent updates to the ExoMol database regarding the molecular spectral line shapes. ExoMol provides comprehensive molecular line lists with a special emphasis on th…
Pressure-dependent water absorption cross sections for exoplanets and other atmospheres
Emma J. Barton, C. Hill, Sergei N. Yurchenko +3
Many atmospheres (cool stars, brown dwarfs, giant planets, extrasolar planets) are predominately composed of molecular hydrogen and helium. HO is one of the best measure…
Detection of an atmosphere around the super-Earth 55 Cancri e
A. Tsiaras, M. Rocchetto, I. P. Waldmann +8
We report the analysis of two new spectroscopic observations of the super-Earth 55 Cancri e, in the near infrared, obtained with the WFC3 camera onboard the HST. 55 Cancri e orbits…
Tau-REx II: Retrieval of emission spectra
Ingo P. Waldmann, Marco Rocchetto, Giovanna Tinetti +3
Tau-REx (Tau Retrieval of Exoplanets) is a novel, fully Bayesian atmospheric retrieval code custom built for extrasolar atmospheres. In Waldmann et al. (2015) the transmission spec…
The EChO science case
Giovanna Tinetti, Pierre Drossart, Paul Eccleston +347
The discovery of almost 2000 exoplanets has revealed an unexpectedly diverse planet population. Observations to date have shown that our Solar System is certainly not representativ…
Tau-REx I: A next generation retrieval code for exoplanetary atmospheres
Ingo P. Waldmann, Giovanna Tinetti, Marco Rocchetto +3
Spectroscopy of exoplanetary atmospheres has become a well established method for the characterisation of extrasolar planets. We here present a novel inverse retrieval code for exo…
