A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b

A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77

Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…

Inhomogeneous terminators on the exoplanet WASP-39 b

Néstor Espinoza, Maria E. Steinrueck, James Kirk +40

Transmission spectroscopy has been a workhorse technique over the past two decades to constrain the physical and chemical properties of exoplanet atmospheres. One of its classical…

Sulphur dioxide in the mid-infrared transmission spectrum of WASP-39b

Diana Powell, Adina D. Feinstein, Elspeth K. H. Lee +70

The recent inference of sulphur dioxide (SO) in the atmosphere of the hot (1100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations suggests that phot…

Debris Disks can Contaminate Mid-Infrared Exoplanet Spectra: Evidence for a Circumstellar Debris Disk around Exoplanet Host WASP-39

Laura Flagg, Alycia J. Weinberger, Taylor J. Bell +21

The signal from a transiting planet can be diluted by astrophysical contamination. In the case of circumstellar debris disks, this contamination could start in the mid-infrared and…

Detection of Fe and Ti on the dayside of the ultrahot Jupiter MASCARA-1b with CARMENES

B. Guo, F. Yan, L. Nortmann +20

Ultrahot Jupiters are a type of gaseous exoplanet that orbit extremely close to their host star, resulting in significantly high equilibrium temperatures. In recent years, high-res…

Two-Dimensional Eclipse Mapping of the Hot Jupiter WASP-43b with JWST MIRI/LRS

Mark Hammond, Taylor J. Bell, Ryan C. Challener +21

We present eclipse maps of the two-dimensional thermal emission from the dayside of the hot Jupiter WASP-43b, derived from an observation of a phase curve with the JWST MIRI/LRS in…

The PEPSI Exoplanet Transit Survey (PETS). V: New Na D transmission spectra indicate a quieter atmosphere on HD 189733b

E. Keles, S. Czesla, K. Poppenhaeger +23

Absorption lines from exoplanet atmospheres observed in transmission allow us to study atmospheric characteristics such as winds. We present a new high-resolution transit time-seri…

Data availability and requirements relevant for the Ariel space mission and other exoplanet atmosphere applications

Katy L. Chubb, Séverine Robert, Clara Sousa-Silva +52

The goal of this white paper is to provide a snapshot of the data availability and data needs primarily for the Ariel space mission, but also for related atmospheric studies of exo…

Nightside clouds and disequilibrium chemistry on the hot Jupiter WASP-43b

Taylor J. Bell, Nicolas Crouzet, Patricio E. Cubillos +80

Hot Jupiters are among the best-studied exoplanets, but it is still poorly understood how their chemical composition and cloud properties vary with longitude. Theoretical models pr…

The elusive atmosphere of WASP-12 b / High-resolution transmission spectroscopy with CARMENES

S. Czesla, M. Lampón, D. Cont +19

To date, the hot Jupiter WASP-12 b has been the only planet with confirmed orbital decay. The late F-type host star has been hypothesized to be surrounded by a large structure of c…
