Characterizing the Time Variability of 2M1207 A+b with JWST NIRSpec/PRISM
Arthur D. Adams, Yifan Zhou, Gabriel Dominique-Marleau +13
We present JWST NIRSpec/PRISM IFU time-resolved observations of 2M1207 A and b (TWA 27), a Myr binary system consisting of a K sub-stellar primary hosting a $…
Hints of a sulfur-rich atmosphere around the 1.6 R Super-Earth L98-59 d from JWST NIRSpec G395H transmission spectroscopy
Amélie Gressier, Néstor Espinoza, Natalie H. Allen +11
Detecting atmospheres around planets with a radius below 1.6 R, commonly referred to as rocky planets (Rogers_2015, Rogers_2021), has proven to be challenging. However,…
Atmospheric retrievals suggest the presence of a secondary atmosphere and possible sulfur species on L 98-59 d from JWST NIRSpec G395H transmission spectroscopy
Agnibha Banerjee, Joanna K. Barstow, Amélie Gressier +10
L 98-59 d is a Super-Earth planet orbiting an M-type star. We performed retrievals on the transmission spectrum of L 98-59 d obtained using NIRSpec G395H during a single transit, f…
Latitudinal Asymmetry in the Dayside Atmosphere of WASP-43b
Ryan C. Challener, Zafar Rustamkulov, Elspeth K. H. Lee +9
We present two-dimensional near-infrared temperature maps of the canonical hot Jupiter WASP-43b using a phase-curve observation with JWST NIRSpec/G395H. From the white-light planet…
A warm Neptune's methane reveals core mass and vigorous atmospheric mixing
David K. Sing, Zafar Rustamkulov, Daniel P. Thorngren +18
Observations of transiting gas giant exoplanets have revealed a pervasive depletion of methane, which has only recently been identified atmospherically. The depletion is thought to…
