Retrieval survey of metals in six ultra-hot Jupiters: Trends in chemistry, rain-out, ionisation and atmospheric dynamics
Siddharth Gandhi, Aurora Kesseli, Yapeng Zhang +9
Ground-based high-resolution spectroscopy (HRS) has detected numerous chemical species and atmospheric dynamics in exoplanets, most notably ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs). However, quan…
Water observed in the atmosphere of τ Bootis Ab with CARMENES/CAHA
Rebecca K. Webb, Siddharth Gandhi, Matteo Brogi +4
Characterising the atmospheres of hot Jupiters is important in understanding the formation and migration of these exotic planets. However, there are still many open questions about…
The 12CO/13CO isotopologue ratio of a young, isolated brown dwarf. Possibly distinct formation pathways of super-Jupiters and brown dwarfs
Yapeng Zhang, Ignas A. G. Snellen, Paul Mollière
Linking atmospheric characteristics of planets to their formation pathways is a central theme in the study of extrasolar planets. Although the 12C/13C isotope ratio shows little va…
The 13O-rich atmosphere of a young accreting super-Jupiter
Yapeng Zhang, Ignas Snellen, Alexander J. Bohn +8
Isotope abundance ratios play an important role in astronomy and planetary sciences, providing insights in the origin and evolution of the Solar System, interstellar chemistry, and…
A search for He I airglow emission from the hot Jupiter tau Boo b
Yapeng Zhang, I. A. G. Snellen, P. Mollière +4
The helium absorption line at 10830 Å, originating from the metastable triplet state 2S, has been suggested as an excellent probe for the extended atmospheres of hot Jupiters a…
Planet Formation in Highly Inclined Binary Systems. II. Orbital Alignment or Anti-alignment and Planet Growth Boost in Intermediate Separation Binaries
Yapeng Zhang, Qingqin Li, Ji-Wei Xie +3
Stars are commonly formed in binary systems, which provide a natural laboratory for studying planet formation in extreme conditions. In our first paper (Paper I) of a series Xie et…
