A large sub-Neptune transiting the thick-disk M4V TOI-2406

R. D. Wells, B. V. Rackham, N. Schanche +71

Large sub-Neptunes are uncommon around the coolest stars in the Galaxy and are rarer still around those that are metal-poor. However, owing to the large planet-to-star radius ratio…

ACCESS & LRG-BEASTS: a precise new optical transmission spectrum of the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-103b

James Kirk, Ben Rackham, Ryan MacDonald +17

We present a new ground-based optical transmission spectrum of the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-103b (K). Our transmission spectrum is the result of combining five new tran…

ACCESS: An optical transmission spectrum of the high-gravity, hot Jupiter HAT-P-23b

Ian C. Weaver, Mercedes López-Morales, Munazza K. Alam +11

We present a new ground-based visible transmission spectrum of the high-gravity, hot Jupiter HAT-P-23b, obtained as part of the ACCESS project. We derive the spectrum from five tra…

Bioverse: a simulation framework to assess the statistical power of future biosignature surveys

Alex Bixel, Dániel Apai

Next-generation space observatories will conduct the first systematic surveys of terrestrial exoplanet atmospheres and search for evidence of life beyond Earth. While in-depth obse…

ACCESS: Confirmation of no potassium in the atmosphere of WASP-31b

Chima D. McGruder, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Nestor Espinoza +12

We present a new optical (400-950nm) transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-31b (M=0.48 MJ; R= 1.54 RJ; P=3.41 days), obtained by combining four transits observations. These…

Testing Earth-like atmospheric evolution on exo-Earths through oxygen absorption: required sample sizes and the advantage of age-based target selection

Alex Bixel, Dániel Apai

Life has had a dramatic impact on the composition of Earth's atmosphere over time, which suggests that statistical studies of other inhabited planets' atmospheres could reveal how…
