The Roasting Marshmallows Program with IGRINS on Gemini South I: Composition and Climate of the Ultrahot Jupiter WASP-18 b

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present high-resolution dayside thermal emission observations of the exoplanet WASP-18 b using IGRINS on Gemini South. We remove stellar and telluric signatures using standard algorithms, and we extract the planet signal via cross-correlation with ...

Modeling the Seasonality of Wind‐Driven Hydrocarbon Waves in Titan's Polar Lakes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Titan, the only body in the solar system aside from Earth with standing liquids on its surface, has high‐latitude hydrocarbon lakes and seas. As Titan's atmosphere generates light winds, there should be waves on the surface of these lakes and seas, yet, direct wave observations are scant.

A Panchromatic Characterization of the Evening and Morning Atmosphere of WASP-107 b: Composition and Cloud Variations, and Insight into the Effect of Stellar Contamination

The Astronomical Journal
Limb-resolved transmission spectroscopy has the potential to transform our understanding of exoplanetary atmospheres. By separately measuring the transmission spectra of the evening and morning limbs, these atmospheric regions can be individually ...

Transmission Spectroscopy of the Lowest-density Gas Giant: Metals and a Potential Extended Outflow in HAT-P-67b

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
Extremely low-density exoplanets are tantalizing targets for atmospheric characterization because of their promisingly large signals in transmission spectroscopy.

An investigation of a super-Earth exoplanet with a greenhouse-gas atmosphere using a general circulation model

, 2012
We use the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model (GCM) dynamical core, in conjunction with a Newtonian relaxation scheme that relaxes to a gray, analytical solution of the radiative transfer equation, to simulate a tidally ...

Volcanism at Piton de la Fournaise as an Analog for Chloris Mons, Venus

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Identifying and investigating terrestrial analogs for Venus volcanic activity is necessary to prepare for the planned upcoming missions to Venus. We propose volcanism at Piton de la Fournaise, a frequently active oceanic shield volcano, as an analog to volcanism at Chloris Mons, Venus.

Impacts of Carbon Dioxide Deposition on Martian Near‐Surface Wave Activity

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract A prominent feature of Mars' winter atmosphere is near‐surface baroclinic wave activity. These waves exert strong control on dust storm variability and contribute to transport of heat, momentum, and dust. Using a suite of Mars general circulation model simulations, we investigate an underexplored connection between near‐surface wave activity ...
