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

open access: yesThe 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

Atmospheric Studies of brown-Dwarfs and Exoplanets: Insights into Planet Formation and Evolution

open access: yes, 2018
Cette thèse se focalise sur les propriétés atmosphériques des exoplanètes et des naines brunes et le lien avec les mécanismes de formation. Dans la première partie, le ratio des abondances de carbone et d'oxygène (C/O) du compagnon et de son étoile hôte est utilisé comme proxy.

Exoplanet Aeronomy: A Case Study of WASP-69 b’s Variable Thermosphere

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Aeronomy, the study of Earth’s upper atmosphere and its interaction with the local space environment, has long traced changes in the thermospheres of Earth and other solar system planets to solar variability in the X-ray and extreme-ultraviolet ...

Coupling the Secular Dynamical and Atmospheric Evolution of Close-in Exoplanets

open access: yes
This thesis plunges into the enigmatic formation of the hot Neptune desert, a sparsely populated region of exoplanetary demographics, by exploring the processes that shape close-in exoplanets. Central to this inquiry is the interplay between atmospheric evaporation and orbital migration, two pivotal mechanisms governing the evolution of planetary ...

Signatures of Atmospheric Mass Loss and Planet Migration in the Time Evolution of Short-period Transiting Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Abstract Comparative studies of young and old exoplanet populations offer a glimpse into how planets may form and evolve with time. We present an occurrence rate study of short-period (<12 days) planets between 1.8 and 10 R ⊕ around 1374 FGK stars in nearby (200 pc) young clusters (<1 Gyr), utilizing data from the

The Sonora Substellar Atmosphere Models. VII. Flame Skimmer: Cloud-free Atmospheric and Evolutionary Models for the Coldest Substellar Objects

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
JWST has provided unprecedented access to ultracool brown dwarfs and has pushed the boundaries of directly imaging temperate giant planets. As we continue to push toward detecting sub-Saturn and Neptune-like planets, it is crucial to develop atmospheric ...

Numerical Performance of Correlated-k Distribution Method in Atmospheric Escape Simulation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Atmospheric escape is crucial to understanding the evolution of planets in and out of the solar system and to interpreting atmospheric observations. While hydrodynamic escape simulations have been actively developed incorporating detailed processes such ...
