The PEPSI Exoplanet Transit Survey (PETS). II. A Deep Search for Thermal Inversion Agents in KELT-20 b/MASCARA-2 b with Emission and Transmission Spectroscopy*

Marshall C. Johnson et al.

Summary: Recent observations have shown that the atmospheres of ultrahot Jupiters commonly possess temperature inversions. However, it remains unclear which opacity sources are responsible for these inversions. In this study, the atmosphere of the ultrahot Jupiter KELT-20 b was observed in both transmission and emission to search for molecular agents that could contribute to the temperature inversion. Through testing and analysis, it was found that TiO and CaH can be ruled out as the sources, while more accurate line lists are needed to determine the possibility of VO contributing to the inversion.

The Mantis network I. A standard grid of templates and masks for cross-correlation analyses of ultra-hot Jupiter transmission spectra

D. Kitzmann et al.

Summary: The atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters serve as unique chemical laboratories dominated by atoms and ions due to their high temperatures. Detailed chemical characterization and direct detection of elements are possible through high-resolution spectroscopy, providing crucial constraints on their formation and evolution. The Mantis network offers a grid of standard templates and line masks for the straightforward detection of chemical species in the atmospheres of hot extrasolar planets.

An Atomic Spectral Survey of WASP-76b: Resolving Chemical Gradients and Asymmetries

Aurora Y. Kesseli et al.

Summary: In this study, we observed the nonuniformity of ultrahot Jupiter atmospheres using high-resolution transit transmission spectroscopy and discovered multiple atoms/ions that have not been reported before. By studying the asymmetries in the observed signals, we proposed different explanations and a new atmospheric model, which contribute to our understanding of atmospheric dynamics in highly irradiated planets.

High-resolution transmission spectroscopy study of ultra-hot Jupiters HAT-P-57b, KELT-17b, KELT-21b, KELT-7b, MASCARA-1b, and WASP-189b

M. Stangret et al.

Summary: In this study, high-resolution observations of six ultra-hot Jupiters were conducted using HARPS-N and HARPS spectrographs. Despite not detecting absorption features in most of the planets, Fe I, Fe II, and Ti I were detected in WASP-189b using cross-correlation methods. The absence of absorption features in other planets can be attributed to stellar pulsations and low signal-to-noise ratios, highlighting a frontier between hot and ultra-hot planets at T-eq = 2150 K.

Spi-OPS: Spitzer and CHEOPS confirm the near-polar orbit of MASCARA-1 b and reveal a hint of dayside reflection

M. J. Hooton et al.

Summary: In this study, the light curves of the ultra-hot Jupiter MASCARA-1 b were analyzed using advanced modeling techniques. The true spin-orbit angle Psi was successfully determined, and the day-side and night-side temperatures, as well as albedo, of the planet were derived. The study emphasizes the importance of using priors based on Doppler tomography for accurate measurements.

Titanium oxide and chemical inhomogeneity in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WASP-189 b

Bibiana Prinoth et al.

Summary: This article reports the unambiguous detection of TiO in the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-189 b using high-resolution transmission spectroscopy. It also reports detections of various metal elements, including neutral and singly ionized iron and titanium, as well as chromium, magnesium, vanadium, and manganese. The different line positions of the detected species suggest spatial gradients in their chemical abundances, indicating their existence in different regions or dynamical regimes. This is direct observational evidence for the three-dimensional thermochemical stratification of an exoplanet atmosphere derived from high-resolution ground-based spectroscopy.

F. Borsa et al.

Summary: The detection of emission lines in planetary atmospheres provides direct evidence of temperature inversion. We confirmed the presence of temperature inversions on the daysides of ultra-hot Jupiters orbiting A-type stars by detecting metals emission lines in the dayside of KELT-20b. Our analysis revealed the presence of Fe I, Fe II, and Cr I emissions, with Cr I being detected in an exoplanet atmosphere for the first time. Contrary to Fe I, Fe II, and Cr I were only detected after the occultation, indicating different atmospheric properties during different orbital phases.

Summary: Recent thermal emission observations have detected temperature inversions and emitted carbon monoxide (CO) lines in ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs). This study used a high-resolution near-infrared spectrograph to observe the thermal emission spectra of two UHJs and detected CO lines in emission for the first time. The results provide insights into the atmospheric properties of UHJs.

Summary: This study provides a clearer picture of atmospheric dynamics for ultra-hot Jupiters based on the example of WASP-76 b. Results suggest that WASP-76 b has an isothermal atmosphere, with uniform winds in the lower atmosphere and vertical winds in the upper atmosphere. The study highlights the importance of vertical winds in the intermediate atmosphere to explain the line broadening of the sodium doublet in this planet.

Confirmation of Asymmetric Iron Absorption in WASP-76b with HARPS

Aurora Y. Kesseli et al.

Summary: Hot Jupiters like WASP-76b have been found to exhibit asymmetric iron absorption features on their nightsides, representing the first observed chemical gradient on an exoplanet. By confirming this feature with archival HARPS data and showing that it can be detected on smaller telescopes through multiple transits, researchers can now make chemical comparisons between exoplanets and map condensation across a range of parameters for the first time.
