The NASA/ESA Cassini-Huygens mission explored Saturn and its moons from 2004 to 2017, providing the most detailed images and ...

WASP-80b joins the small number of gas-giant exoplanets that show evidence for enhanced atmospheric metallicity: the transmission spectrum is consistent with metallicities ranging from similar to ...

GJ. 1214b is the most studied sub-Neptune exoplanet to date. Recent measurements have shown its near-infrared transmission spectrum to be flat, pointing to a high-altitude opacity source in the ...

New analysis casts doubt on potential biosignatures detected in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b that could indicate the presence of life.

This figure shows how star spots can contaminate transmission spectra. When light from starspots is combined with light from the planet's atmosphere, it's difficult to interpret the signals' meaning.

We then obtained the transmission spectrum of the atmosphere of the exoplanet from these observations.

A software package called atmospheric transmission at microwaves (ATM) has been developed to provide the radioastronomy and aeronomy communities with an updated tool to compute the atmospheric ...

Methods: In order to verify the possibility of detecting atmospheric turbulence by the Mie-scattering lidar, firstly, based on the power spectrum method, the Zernike polynomial method is used to ...

Atmospheric Reconnaissance of TRAPPIST-1 b with JWST/NIRISS: Evidence for Strong Stellar Contamination in the Transmission Spectra.

TRAPPIST-1 is a nearby system of seven Earth-sized, temperate, rocky exoplanets transiting a Jupiter-sized ultracool red dwarf, ideally suited for in-depth atmospheric studies. Using the NIRISS ...
