Assessing the Impact of Varying HSO Cross Sections on Photochemical Models: Implications for the Spectral Characterization of Terrestrial Exoplanets
Alexandre Branco, Clara Sousa-Silva, Wynter Broussard +5
Characterization of exoplanet atmospheres requires a close interplay between observations, modelling and experimental data. The accuracy of input data used in atmospheric models is…
Wavelength Requirements for Life Detection via Reflected Light Spectroscopy of Rocky Exoplanets
Joshua Krissansen-Totton, Anna Grace Ulses, Maxwell Frissell +21
Searching for signs of life is a primary goal of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO). However, merely detecting oxygen, methane, or other widely discussed biosignatures is insuf…
The Detection-vs-Retrieval Challenge: Titan as an Exoplanet
Prajwal Niraula, Julien de Wit, Robert Hargreaves +2
Cassini's observations of Titan's atmosphere are exemplary benchmarks for exoplanet atmospheric studies owing to (1) their precision and (2) our independent knowledge of Titan. Lev…
The Impact of Extended CO Cross Sections on Temperate Anoxic Planet Atmospheres
Wynter Broussard, Edward W. Schwieterman, Clara Sousa-Silva +3
Our interpretation of terrestrial exoplanet atmospheric spectra will always be limited by the accuracy of the data we use as input in our forward and retrieval models. Ultraviolet…
The Impact of Extended HO Cross-Sections on Temperate Anoxic Planet Atmospheres: Implications for Spectral Characterization of Habitable Worlds
Wynter Broussard, Edward W. Schwieterman, Sukrit Ranjan +3
JWST has created a new era of terrestrial exoplanet atmospheric characterization, and with it the possibility to detect potential biosignature gases like CH. Our interpretati…
Origin and extent of the opacity challenge for atmospheric retrievals of WASP-39 b
Prajwal Niraula, Julien de Wit, Iouli E. Gordon +2
As the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) came online last summer, we entered a new era of astronomy. This new era is supported by data products of unprecedented information content…
