Gas Phase Chemistry of Cool Exoplanet Atmospheres: Insight from Laboratory Simulations
Chao He, Sarah M. Hörst, Nikole K. Lewis +6
Photochemistry induced by stellar UV flux should produce haze particles in exoplanet atmospheres. Recent observations indicate that haze and/or cloud layers exist in the atmosphere…
Photochemical Haze Formation in the Atmospheres of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes
Chao He, Sarah M. Horst, Nikole K. Lewis +8
UV radiation can induce photochemical processes in exoplanet atmospheres and produce haze particles. Recent observations suggest that haze and/or cloud layers could be present in t…
Seasonal stratospheric photochemistry on Uranus and Neptune
Julianne I. Moses, Leigh N. Fletcher, Thomas K. Greathouse +2
A time-variable 1D photochemical model is used to study the distribution of stratospheric hydrocarbons as a function of altitude, latitude, and season on Uranus and Neptune. The re…
Additional Exoplanet Science Enabled by FINESSE
Robert T. Zellem, Jonathan J. Fortney, Mark R. Swain +10
FINESSE, a NASA MIDEX mission in Step 2, would conduct a large, uniform survey of exoplanet atmospheres and create a statistically significant sample for comparative planetology. F…
Laboratory Simulations of Haze Formation in the Atmospheres of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes: Particle Color and Size Distribution
Chao He, Sarah M. Horst, Nikole K. Lewis +7
Super-Earths and mini-Neptunes are the most abundant types of planets among the ~3500 confirmed exoplanets, and are expected to exhibit a wide variety of atmospheric compositions.…
The Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Program for JWST
Jacob L. Bean, Kevin B. Stevenson, Natalie M. Batalha +99
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) presents the opportunity to transform our understanding of planets and the origins of life by revealing the atmospheric compositions, structur…
