Transmission Spectroscopy of WASP-79b from 0.6 to 5.0 m

Kristin S. Sotzen, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +18

As part of the PanCET program, we have conducted a spectroscopic study of WASP-79b, an inflated hot Jupiter orbiting an F-type star in Eridanus with a period of 3.66 days. Building…

Detection of Na, K and HO in the hazy atmosphere of WASP-6b

Aarynn L. Carter, Nikolay Nikolov, David K. Sing +13

We present new observations of the transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-6b both from the ground with the Very Large Telescope (VLT) FOcal Reducer and Spectrograph (FORS2)…

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…

WASP-52b. The effect of starspot correction on atmospheric retrievals

Giovanni Bruno, Nikole K. Lewis, Munazza K. Alam +13

We perform atmospheric retrievals on the full optical to infrared () transmission spectrum of the inflated hot Jupiter WASP-52b by combining HST/STIS, WFC3 IR…

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…

TESS observations of the WASP-121 b phase curve

Tansu Daylan, Maximilian N. Günther, Thomas Mikal-Evans +23

We study the red-optical photometry of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121 b as observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and model its atmosphere through a radiative…

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…

The carbon-to-oxygen ratio: implications for the spectra of hydrogen-dominated exoplanet atmospheres

Benjamin Drummond, Aarynn L. Carter, Eric Hébrard +4

We present results from one-dimensional atmospheric simulations investigating the effect of varying the carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio on the thermal structure, chemical composition…

High-resolution confirmation of an extended helium atmosphere around WASP-107b

R. Allart, V. Bourrier, C. Lovis +7

Probing the evaporation of exoplanet atmospheres is key to understanding the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems. The main tracer of evaporation in the UV is the Lyman-…

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…
