An HST Transmission Spectrum of the Closest M-Dwarf Transiting Rocky Planet LTT 1445Ab

Katherine A. Bennett, David K. Sing, Kevin B. Stevenson +7

Which rocky exoplanets have atmospheres? This presumably simply question is the first that must be answered to understand the prevalence of nearby habitable planets. A mere 6.9 pc…

ExoTiC-LD: thirty seconds to stellar limb-darkening coefficients

David Grant, Hannah R. Wakeford

Stellar limb darkening is the observed variation in brightness of a star between its centre and edge (or limb) when viewed in the plane of the sky. Stellar brightness is maximal at…

The Unrealised Interdisciplinary Advantage of Observing High Mass Transiting Exoplanets and Brown Dwarfs -- Strategic Exoplanet Initiatives with HST and JWST White Paper

Aarynn L. Carter, Munazza. K. Alam, Thomas Beatty +8

We advocate for further prioritisation of atmospheric characterisation observations of high mass transiting exoplanets and brown dwarfs. This population acts as a unique comparativ…

A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b

A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77

Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…

Sulphur dioxide in the mid-infrared transmission spectrum of WASP-39b

Diana Powell, Adina D. Feinstein, Elspeth K. H. Lee +70

The recent inference of sulphur dioxide (SO) in the atmosphere of the hot (1100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations suggests that phot…

BOWIE-ALIGN: A JWST comparative survey of aligned vs misaligned hot Jupiters to test the dependence of atmospheric composition on migration history

James Kirk, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Anna B. T. Penzlin +19

A primary objective of exoplanet atmosphere characterisation is to learn about planet formation and evolution, however, this is challenged by degeneracies. To determine whether dif…
