A JWST NIRSpec Phase Curve for WASP-121b: Dayside Emission Strongest Eastward of the Substellar Point and Nightside Conditions Conducive to Cloud Formation

Thomas Mikal-Evans, David K. Sing, Jiayin Dong +10

We present the first exoplanet phase curve measurement made with the JWST NIRSpec instrument, highlighting the exceptional stability of this newly-commissioned observatory for exop…

Observability of signatures of transport-induced chemistry in clear atmospheres of hot gas giant exoplanets

Maria Zamyatina, Éric Hébrard, Benjamin Drummond +6

Transport-induced quenching, i.e., the homogenisation of chemical abundances by atmospheric advection, is thought to occur in the atmospheres of hot gas giant exoplanets. While som…

CAMEMBERT: A Mini-Neptunes GCM Intercomparison, Protocol Version 1.0. A CUISINES Model Intercomparison Project

Duncan A. Christie, Elspeth K. H. Lee, Hamish Innes +19

With an increased focus on the observing and modelling of mini-Neptunes, there comes a need to better understand the tools we use to model their atmospheres. In this paper, we pres…

The Impact of Phase Equilibrium Cloud Models on GCM Simulations of GJ~1214b

D. A. Christie, N. J. Mayne, R. M. Gillard +4

We investigate the impact of clouds on the atmosphere of GJ~1214b using the radiatively-coupled, phase-equilibrium cloud model {\sc EddySed} coupled to the {\sc Unified Model} gene…

3D radiative-transfer for exoplanet atmospheres. gCMCRT: a GPU accelerated MCRT code

Elspeth K. H. Lee, Joost P. Wardenier, Bibiana Prinoth +10

Radiative-transfer (RT) is a key component for investigating atmospheres of planetary bodies. With the 3D nature of exoplanet atmospheres being important in giving rise to their ob…

The Impact of Mixing Treatments on Cloud Modelling in 3D Simulations of Hot Jupiters

D. A. Christie, N. J. Mayne, S. Lines +7

We present results of 3D hydrodynamical simulations of HD209458b including a coupled, radiatively-active cloud model ({\sc EddySed}). We investigate the role of the mixing by repla…

A Model of the H and Na Transmission Spectrum of HD 189733b

Chenliang Huang, Phil Arras, Duncan Christie +1

This paper presents a detailed hydrostatic model of the upper atmosphere of HD 189733b, with the goal of constraining its temperature, particle densities, and radiation field over…

Investigation of the environment around close-in transiting exoplanets using CLOUDY

Jake D. Turner, Duncan Christie, Phil Arras +2

It has been suggested that hot stellar wind gas in a bow shock around an exoplanet is sufficiently opaque to absorb stellar photons and give rise to an observable transit depth at…

Axisymmetric Simulations of Hot Jupiter-Stellar Wind Hydrodynamic Interaction

Duncan Christie, Phil Arras, Zhi-Yun Li

Gas giant exoplanets orbiting at close distances to the parent star are subjected to large radiation and stellar wind fluxes. In this paper, hydrodynamic simulations of the planeta…

Hα Absorption in Transiting Exoplanet Atmospheres

Duncan Christie, Phil Arras, Zhi-Yun Li

Absorption of stellar Hα by the upper atmosphere of the planet HD189733b has recently been detected by Jensen et al. Motivated by this observation, we have developed a model for at…
