Interpolation and Synthesis of Sparse Samples in Exoplanet Atmospheric Modeling [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper highlights methods from geostatistics that are relevant to the interpretation, intercomparison, and synthesis of atmospheric model data, with a specific application to exoplanet atmospheric modeling.

A Spitzer Space Telescope Exploration Science Program to Search for Y-dwarf Variability

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present the results of a Spitzer Space Telescope Exploration Science Program to search for and characterize variability in Y dwarfs. We observed 14 Y dwarfs over a 24 hr period at [3.6] and [4.5] and then repeated the observations a few months later ...

Atmospheric Waves Driving Variability and Cloud Modulation on a Planetary-mass Object

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Planetary-mass objects and brown dwarfs at the transition ( T _eff ∼ 1300 K) from relatively red L dwarfs to bluer mid-T dwarfs show enhanced spectrophotometric variability.

Prioritizing High-Precision Photometric Monitoring of Exoplanet and Brown Dwarf Companions with JWST -- Strategic Exoplanet Initiatives with HST and JWST White Paper [PDF]

open access: yes
We advocate for the prioritization of high-precision photometric monitoring of exoplanet and brown dwarf companions to detect brightness variability arising from features in their atmospheres.

The Polar Vortex Hypothesis: Evolving, Spectrally Distinct Polar Regions Explain Short- and Long-term Light-curve Evolution and Color–Inclination Trends in Brown Dwarfs and Giant Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent studies revealed viewing-angle-dependent color and spectral trends in brown dwarfs, as well as long-term photometric variability (∼100 hr). The origins of these trends are yet unexplained.

AstroSkyFlow: An Astronomical Sky Image Flow Simulator for Time Domain Survey Validation and Machine Learning

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Modern time-domain optical surveys produce massive data volumes that require robust, high-fidelity simulated datasets for developing and validating automated pipelines and machine learning (ML) models.

Planetary Habitability Under the Light of a Rapidly Changing Star

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Planetary atmospheric energy budgets primarily depend on stellar incident flux. However, stellar variability can have major consequences for the evolution of planetary climates. In this work, we evaluate how stellar variability influences the equilibrium

GARLIC - the Generic Atmospheric Radiation Line-by-line IR Code for exoplanet atmospheric spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2019
The Generic Atmospheric Radiation Line-by-line Infrared Code or GARLIC has originally been developed for Earth atmospheric remote sensing and, more recently, has been used extensively for exoplanet studies.
