Transmission Spectra of Three-Dimensional Hot Jupiter Model Atmospheres
J. J. Fortney, M. Shabram, A. P. Showman +4
We compute models of the transmission spectra of planets HD 209458b, HD 189733b, and generic hot Jupiters. We examine the effects of temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity f…
Planetary Formation and Evolution Revealed with a Saturn Entry Probe: The Importance of Noble Gases
Jonathan J. Fortney, Kevin Zahnle, Isabelle Baraffe +9
The determination of Saturn's atmospheric noble gas abundances are critical to understanding the formation and evolution of Saturn, and giant planets in general. These measurements…
Terrestrial Planet Finder Coronagraph (TPF-C) Flight Baseline Concept
Marie Levine, D. Lisman, S. Shaklan +52
The Terrestrial Planet Finder Coronagraph (TPF-C) mission presented here is an existence proof for a flagship-class internal coronagraph space mission capable of detecting and char…
Exoplanet Characterization and the Search for Life
J. Kasting, W. Traub, A. Roberge +119
Over 300 extrasolar planets (exoplanets) have been detected orbiting nearby stars. We now hope to conduct a census of all planets around nearby stars and to characterize their atmo…
Thermometric Soots on Warm Jupiters?
K. Zahnle, M. S. Marley, J. J. Fortney
We use a 1D thermochemical and photochemical kinetics model to predict the disequilibrium stratospheric chemistries of warm and hot Jupiters (800 < T < 1200 K). Thermal chemistry a…
Multiple Scattering Polarization of Substellar-mass Objects : T-dwarfs
Sujan Sengupta, Mark S. Marley
While there have been multiple observational programs aimed at detecting linear polarization of optical radiation emitted by ultracool dwarfs, there has been comparatively less rig…
