The Effects of Kinematic Magnetohydrodynamics on the Atmospheric Circulation of Eccentric Hot Jupiters

The Astrophysical Journal
Hot Jupiters are typically considered to be tidally locked due to their short orbital periods. The extreme irradiation can result in atmospheric species becoming thermally ionized on the dayside, which then interact with the planet’s magnetic field by ...

A Large and Variable Leading Tail of Helium in a Hot Saturn Undergoing Runaway Inflation

The Astronomical Journal
Atmospheric escape shapes the fate of exoplanets, with statistical evidence for transformative mass loss imprinted across the mass–radius–insolation distribution.

Evaporation of Close-in Sub-Neptunes by Cooling White Dwarfs

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Motivated by the recent surge in interest concerning white dwarf (WD) planets, this work presents the first numerical exploration of WD-driven atmospheric escape, whereby the high-energy radiation from a hot/young WD can trigger the outflow of the ...

HD 206893 B at High Spectral Resolution with the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer

The Astronomical Journal
We present an atmospheric characterization and orbital analysis of HD 206893 B, an exceptionally red, L/T-transition substellar companion in a multiplanetary system, via Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) high-resolution ( R ∼ 35,000) K- band ...

Atmospheric Collapse and Reinflation through Impacts for Terrestrial Planets around M Dwarfs

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Detection of an atmosphere around a terrestrial exoplanet will be a major milestone in the field, but our observational capacities are biased towards tidally locked, close-in planets orbiting M dwarf stars. The atmospheres of these planets are vulnerable

Asymmetries in the Simulated Ozone Distribution on TRAPPIST-1e due to Orography

The Astrophysical Journal
TRAPPIST-1e is a tidally locked rocky exoplanet orbiting the habitable zone of an M dwarf star. Upcoming observations are expected to reveal new rocky exoplanets and their atmospheres around M dwarf stars.

Two-dimensional Eclipse Mapping of the Hot-Jupiter WASP-43b with JWST MIRI/LRS

The Astronomical Journal
We present eclipse maps of the two-dimensional thermal emission from the dayside of the hot-Jupiter WASP-43b, derived from an observation of a phase curve with the JWST MIRI/LRS instrument.
