Retrieving Exoplanet Atmospheres using Planetary Infrared Excess: Prospects for the Nightside of WASP-43 b and other Hot Jupiters
Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Kevin B. Stevenson, L. C. Mayorga +4
To increase the sample size of future atmospheric characterization efforts, we build on the planetary infrared excess (PIE) technique that has been proposed as a means to detect an…
Transmission Spectroscopy of the Earth-Sun System to Inform the Search for Extrasolar Life
L. C. Mayorga, J. Lustig-Yaeger, E. M. May +7
Upcoming NASA astrophysics missions such as the James Webb Space Telescope will search for signs of life on planets transiting nearby stars. Doing so will require co-adding dozens…
Detection of Rotational Variability in Floofy Objects at Optical Wavelengths
L. C. Mayorga, E. M. May, J. Lustig-Yaeger +1
Phase resolved observations of planetary bodies allow us to understand the longitudinal and latitudinal variations that make each one unique. Rotational variations have been detect…
Nitrogen Dioxide Pollution as a Signature of Extraterrestrial Technology
Ravi Kopparapu, Giada Arney, Jacob Haqq-Misra +2
Nitrogen dioxide (NO) on Earth today has biogenic and anthropogenic sources. During the COVID-19 pandemic, observations of global NO emissions have shown significant decrea…
High-Resolution Spectral Discriminants of Ocean Loss for M Dwarf Terrestrial Exoplanets
Michaela Leung, Victoria S. Meadows, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger
In the near future, extremely-large ground-based telescopes may conduct some of the first searches for life beyond the solar system. High-spectral resolution observations of reflec…
The Impact of Planetary Rotation Rate on the Reflectance and Thermal Emission Spectrum of Terrestrial Exoplanets Around Sun-like Stars
Scott D. Guzewich, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Christopher Evan Davis +3
Robust atmospheric and radiative transfer modeling will be required to properly interpret reflected light and thermal emission spectra of terrestrial exoplanets. This will help bre…
