Potential Atmospheric Compositions of TRAPPIST-1 c Constrained by JWST/MIRI Observations at 15 μm

The first James Webb Space Telescope observations of TRAPPIST-1 c showed a secondary eclipse depth of 421 ± 94 ppm at 15 μ m, which is consistent with a bare rock surface or a thin, O _2 -dominated, low-CO _2 atmosphere. Here we further explore potential atmospheres for TRAPPIST-1 c by comparing the...
