Constraining Stellar Photospheres as an Essential Step for Transmission Spectroscopy of Small Exoplanets

Benjamin V. Rackham, Arazi Pinhas, Dániel Apai +29

Transmission spectra probe the atmospheres of transiting exoplanets, but these observations are also subject to signals introduced by magnetic active regions on host stars. Here we…

An optical transmission spectrum of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-33b. First indication of AlO in an exoplanet

C. von Essen, M. Mallonn, L. Welbanks +4

There has been increasing progress toward detailed characterization of exoplanetary atmospheres, in both observations and theoretical methods. Improvements in observational facilit…

HO abundances and cloud properties in ten hot giant exoplanets

Arazi Pinhas, Nikku Madhusudhan, Siddharth Gandhi +1

Transmission spectroscopy of exoplanets has the potential to provide precise measurements of atmospheric chemical abundances, in particular of hot Jupiters whose large sizes and hi…

Physical properties and optical-infrared transmission spectrum of the giant planet XO-1b

John Southworth, J. Tregloan-Reed, A. Pinhas +3

We present ten high-precision light curves of four transits in the XO-1 planetary system, obtained using , , , redshifted H, and filters. We use these to measur…

Retrieval of planetary and stellar properties in transmission spectroscopy with Aura

Arazi Pinhas, Benjamin V. Rackham, Nikku Madhusudhan +1

Transmission spectroscopy provides a powerful probe of the atmospheric properties of transiting exoplanets. To date, studies of exoplanets in transit have focused on inferring thei…

Evidence for a Dayside Thermal Inversion and High Metallicity for the Hot Jupiter WASP-18b

Kyle Sheppard, Avi M. Mandell, Patrick Tamburo +4

We find evidence for a strong thermal inversion in the dayside atmosphere of the highly irradiated hot Jupiter WASP-18b (T, ) based on emission spectrosco…
