Inferring Shallow Surfaces on sub-Neptune Exoplanets with JWST

Shang-Min Tsai, Hamish Innes, Tim Lichtenberg +4

Planets smaller than Neptune and larger than Earth make up the majority of the discovered exoplanets. Those with H-rich atmospheres are prime targets for atmospheric characteri…

Cross-sections for heavy atmospheres: HO continuum

Lara O. Anisman, Katy L. Chubb, Jonathan Elsey +5

Most of the exoplanets detected up to now transit in front of their host stars, allowing for the generation of transmission spectra; the study of exoplanet atmospheres relies heavi…

HST PanCET Program: A Complete Near-UV to Infrared Transmission Spectrum for the Hot Jupiter WASP-79b

Alexander D. Rathcke, Ryan J. MacDonald, Joanna K. Barstow +12

We present a new optical transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-79b. We observed three transits with the STIS instrument mounted on HST, spanning 0.3 - 1.0 um. Combining the…

Ariel: Enabling planetary science across light-years

Giovanna Tinetti, Paul Eccleston, Carole Haswell +313

Ariel, the Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-survey, was adopted as the fourth medium-class mission in ESA's Cosmic Vision programme to be launched in 2029. Durin…

Five carbon- and nitrogen-bearing species in a hot giant planet's atmosphere

Paolo Giacobbe, Matteo Brogi, Siddharth Gandhi +40

The atmospheres of gaseous giant exoplanets orbiting close to their parent stars (hot Jupiters) have been probed for nearly two decades. They allow us to investigate the chemical a…

Cloud property trends in hot and ultra-hot giant gas planets (WASP-43b, WASP-103b, WASP-121b, HAT-P-7b, and WASP-18b)

Ch. Helling, D. Lewis, D. Samra +8

Ultra-hot Jupiters are the hottest exoplanets discovered so far. Observations begin to provide insight into the composition of their extended atmospheres and their chemical day/nig…
