The Detectability and Constraints of Biosignature Gases in the Near & Mid-Infrared from Transit Transmission Spectroscopy
Luke Tremblay, Michael R Line, Kevin B Stevenson +4
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is expected to revolutionize our understanding of Jovian worlds over the coming decade. However, as we push towards characterizing cooler, sma…
Origins Space Telescope Mission Concept Study Report
M. Meixner, A. Cooray, D. Leisawitz +66
The Origins Space Telescope (Origins) traces our cosmic history, from the formation of the first galaxies and the rise of metals to the development of habitable worlds and present-…
WASP-127b transmission spectrum]{Abundance measurements of HO and carbon-bearing species in the atmosphere of WASP-127b confirm its super-solar metallicity
Jessica J. Spake, David K. Sing, Hannah R. Wakeford +14
The chemical abundances of exoplanet atmospheres may provide valuable information about the bulk compositions, formation pathways, and evolutionary histories of planets. Exoplanets…
A Hubble PanCET Study of HAT-P-11b: A Cloudy Neptune with a Low Atmospheric Metallicity
Yayaati Chachan, Heather A. Knutson, Peter Gao +14
We present the first comprehensive look at the m transmission spectrum of the warm ( K) Neptune HAT-P-11b derived from thirteen individual transits observed u…
High-resolution Infrared Spectrograph for Exoplanet Characterization with the Keck and Thirty Meter Telescopes
Dimitri Mawet, Michael Fitzgerald, Quinn Konopacky +46
HISPEC (High-resolution Infrared Spectrograph for Exoplanet Characterization) is a proposed diffraction-limited spectrograph for the W.M. Keck Observatory, and a pathfinder for the…
The Hubble PanCET program: An extensive search for metallic ions in the exosphere of GJ 436 b
L. A. dos Santos, D. Ehrenreich, V. Bourrier +15
(Abridged) The quiet M2.5 star GJ 436 hosts a warm Neptune that displays an extended atmosphere that dwarfs its own host star. Predictions of atmospheric escape in such planets sta…
The HST PanCET Program: Exospheric Mg II and Fe II in the Near-UV transmission spectrum of WASP-121b using Jitter Decorrelation
David K. Sing, Panayotis Lavvas, Gilda E. Ballester +17
We present HST near-ultraviolet (NUV) transits of the hot Jupiter WASP-121b, acquired as part of the PanCET program. Time series spectra during two transit events were used to meas…
An emission spectrum for WASP-121b measured across the 0.8-1.1 micron wavelength range using the Hubble Space Telescope
Thomas Mikal-Evans, David K. Sing, Jayesh M. Goyal +11
WASP-121b is a transiting gas giant exoplanet orbiting close to its Roche limit, with an inflated radius nearly double that of Jupiter and a dayside temperature comparable to a lat…
Constraining Exoplanet Metallicities and Aerosols with ARIEL: An Independent Study by the Contribution to ARIEL Spectroscopy of Exoplanets (CASE) Team
Robert T. Zellem, Mark R. Swain, Nicolas B. Cowan +24
Launching in 2028, ESA's Atmospheric Remote-sensing Exoplanet Large-survey (ARIEL) survey of 1000 transiting exoplanets will build on the legacies of Kepler and TESS and comp…
Evaluating Climate Variability Of The Canonical Hot Jupiters Hd 189733b & Hd 209458b Through Multi-epoch Eclipse Observations
Brian M. Kilpatrick, Tiffany Kataria, Nikole K. Lewis +9
Here we present the analysis of multi-epoch secondary eclipse observations of HD 189733b and HD 209458b as a probe of temporal variability in the planetary climate using both Spitz…
The Super-Earth Opportunity - Search for Habitable Exoplanets in the 2020s
Renyu Hu, Charles A. Beichman, David Brain +23
The recent discovery of a staggering diversity of planets beyond the Solar System has brought with it a greatly expanded search space for habitable worlds. The Kepler exoplanet sur…
Statistical Characterization of Hot Jupiter Atmospheres using Spitzer's Secondary Eclipses
Emily Garhart, Drake Deming, Avi Mandell +15
We report 78 secondary eclipse depths for a sample of 36 transiting hot Jupiters observed at 3.6- and 4.5 microns using the Spitzer Space Telescope. Our eclipse results for 27 of t…
