CONSTRAINING THE ATMOSPHERIC COMPOSITION OF THE DAY-NIGHT TERMINATORS OF HD 189733b: ATMOSPHERIC RETRIEVAL WITH AEROSOLS

A number of observations have shown that Rayleigh scattering by aerosols dominates the transmission spectrum of HD 189733b at wavelengths shortward of 1 μm. In this study, we retrieve a range of aerosol distributions consistent with transmission spectroscopy between 0.3-24 μm that were recently re-a...
