Day–Night Transport-induced Chemistry and Clouds on WASP-39b: Gas-phase Composition
JWST has recently detected the first robust photochemical product on an exoplanet: sulfur dioxide (SO _2 ) on WASP-39b. The data from the NIRISS instrument also reveal signs of partial coverage of clouds. Most of the previous studies have focused on interpreting spectral data with 1D models. To expl...
