The HST PanCET Program: Hints of Na I & Evidence of a Cloudy Atmosphere for the Inflated Hot Jupiter WASP-52b

Munazza K. Alam, Nikolay Nikolov, Mercedes Lopez-Morales +16

We present an optical to near-infrared transmission spectrum of the inflated hot Jupiter WASP-52b using three transit observations from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (ST…

Fully scalable forward model grid of exoplanet transmission spectra

Jayesh M. Goyal, Hannah R. Wakeford, Nathan J. Mayne +3

Simulated exoplanet transmission spectra are critical for planning and interpretation of observations and to explore the sensitivity of spectral features to atmospheric thermochemi…

An optical transmission spectrum for the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121b measured with the Hubble Space Telescope

Thomas M. Evans, David K. Sing, Jayesh Goyal +24

We present an atmospheric transmission spectrum for the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121b, measured using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) onboard the Hubble Space Telesco…

The 3D thermal, dynamical and chemical structure of the atmosphere of HD 189733b: implications of wind-driven chemistry for the emission phase curve

Benjamin Drummond, Nathan J. Mayne, James Manners +5

In this paper we present three-dimensional atmospheric simulations of the hot Jupiter HD~189733b under two different scenarios: local chemical equilibrium and including advection o…

Exonephology: Transmission spectra from a 3D simulated cloudy atmosphere of HD209458b

S. Lines, J. Manners, N. J. Mayne +8

We present high resolution transmission spectra, calculated directly from a 3D radiative-hydrodynamics simulation that includes kinetic cloud formation, for HD209458b. We find that…

An absolute sodium abundance for a cloud-free 'hot Saturn' exoplanet

Nikolay Nikolov, David K. Sing, Jonathan J. Fortney +20

Broad absorption signatures from alkali metals, such as the sodium (Na I) and potassium (K I) resonance doublets, have long been predicted in the optical atmospheric spectra of clo…
