Exoplanetary science is on the verge of an unprecedented revolution. The thousands of
exoplanets discovered over the past decade have most recently been supplemented by …

We describe how environmental context can help determine whether oxygen (O2) detected
in extrasolar planetary observations is more likely to have a biological source. Here we …

The Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b has been the subject of extensive efforts to
determine its atmospheric properties using transmission spectroscopy,,–. However, these …

Interactions between exoplanetary atmospheres and internal properties have long been
proposed to be drivers of the inflation mechanisms of gaseous planets and apparent …

The abundances of main carbon-and oxygen-bearing gases in the atmospheres of giant
exoplanets provide insights into atmospheric chemistry and planet formation processes …

Constraining planet formation based on the atmospheric composition of exoplanets is a
fundamental goal of the exoplanet community. Existing studies commonly try to constrain …

The recent inference of sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the atmosphere of the hot (approximately
1,100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations …

We present the easy-to-use, publicly available, Python package petitRADTRANS, built for
the spectral characterization of exoplanet atmospheres. The code is fast, accurate, and …

The population of planets smaller than approximately 1.7 Earth radii (R⊕) is widely
interpreted as consisting of rocky worlds, generally referred to as super-Earths. This picture …

The future is now–after its long-awaited launch in 2021 December, JWST began science
operations in 2022 July and is already revolutionizing exoplanet astronomy. The Early …
