Atmospheric retrieval evidence for water isotopologue HDO on exoplanet WASP-39b

Fabian Gruebel, Karan Molaverdikhani, Barbara Ercolano +5

Hydrogen-isotopologues are commonly used to trace the chemical processing and origin of hydrogen-bearing species throughout the Universe, however, their abundance remains unconstra…

Cloud and Haze Parameterization in Atmospheric Retrievals: Insights from Titan's Cassini Data and JWST Observations of Hot Jupiters

Quentin Changeat, Deborah Bardet, Katy Chubb +4

Context: Before JWST, telescope observations were not sensitive enough to constrain the nature of clouds in exo-atmospheres. Recent observations, however, have inferred cloud signa…

The dark days are overcast: Iron-bearing clouds on HD 209458 b and WASP-43 b can explain low dayside albedos

K. L. Chubb, D. Samra, Ch. Helling +2

We simulate the geometric albedo spectra of hot Jupiter exoplanets HD 209458 b and WASP-43 b, based on global climate model (GCMs) post-processed with kinetic cloud models. We pred…

The Unrealised Interdisciplinary Advantage of Observing High Mass Transiting Exoplanets and Brown Dwarfs -- Strategic Exoplanet Initiatives with HST and JWST White Paper

Aarynn L. Carter, Munazza. K. Alam, Thomas Beatty +8

We advocate for further prioritisation of atmospheric characterisation observations of high mass transiting exoplanets and brown dwarfs. This population acts as a unique comparativ…

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…

The 2024 release of the ExoMol database: molecular line lists for exoplanet and other hot atmospheres

Jonathan Tennyson, Sergei N. Yurchenko, Jingxin Zhang +27

The ExoMol database (www.exomol.com) provides molecular data for spectroscopic studies of hot atmospheres. These data are widely used to model atmospheres of exoplanets, cool stars…
