The Atmosphere of HD 149026b: Low Metal Enrichment and Weak Energy Transport

The Astrophysical Journal
Recent JWST eclipse spectra of the high-density hot Saturn HD 149026b between 2.35 and 5.08 μ m have allowed for in-depth study of its atmosphere. To understand its atmospheric properties, we have created a grid of 1D radiative-convective–thermochemical ...

JWST/NIRISS Reveals the Water-rich “Steam World” Atmosphere of GJ 9827 d

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
With sizable volatile envelopes but smaller radii than the solar system ice giants, sub-Neptunes have been revealed as one of the most common types of planet in the galaxy. While the spectroscopic characterization of larger sub-Neptunes (2.5–4 R _⊕ ) has

A Next-generation Exoplanet Atmospheric Retrieval Framework for Transmission Spectroscopy (NEXOTRANS): Comparative Characterization for WASP-39 b Using JWST NIRISS, NIRSpec PRISM, and MIRI Observations

The Astrophysical Journal
The advent of JWST has marked a new era in exoplanetary atmospheric studies, offering higher-resolution data and greater precision across a broader spectral range than previous space-based telescopes.
