Testing the Ariel exoplanet space observatory by Spry, R

“…<p>Ariel is an ESA mission that will use the transit spectroscopy method to observe the atmospheres’ of ~1000 exoplanets. Ariel is a 1 m class cryogenic space telescope that will be placed in a halo orbit around the Earth-Sun L2 point. …”

Hidden water in magma ocean exoplanets by Dorn, C, Lichtenberg, T

“…So far, these data have been largely neglected for exoplanet mass–radius modeling. Here we present an advanced interior model for water-rich rocky exoplanets. …”

EChO - Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory by Tinetti, G, Beaulieu, J, Henning, T, Meyer, M, Micela, G, Ribas, I, Stam, D, Swain, M, Krause, O, Ollivier, M, Pace, E, Swinyard, B, Aylward, A, Boekel, R, Coradini, A, Encrenaz, T, Snellen, I, Zapatero-Osorio, MR, Bouwman, J, Cho, J, Foresto, V, Guillot, T, Lopez-Morales, M, Mueller-Wodarg, I, Palle, E

“…A dedicated mission to investigate exoplanetary atmospheres represents a major milestone in our quest to understand our place in the universe by placing our Solar System in context and by addressing the suitability of planets for the presence of life. EChO -the Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory- is a mission concept specifically geared for this purpose. …”

Atmospheric circulation of tide-locked exoplanets by Pierrehumbert, R, Hammond, M

“…In this article, the atmospheric circulations forced by this heating contrast are explored, with a focus on terrestrial planets; here, “terrestrial” refers to planets with a condensed solid or liquid surface at which most of the incident stellar radiation is absorbed and does not imply habitability in the Earthlike sense. The census of exoplanets contains many terrestrial planets that are very likely to be tide locked, including extremely hot close-orbit planets around Sunlike stars and habitable zone (and hotter) planets around lower-mass stars. …”

Exoplanet Transmission Spectroscopy using KMOS by Parviainen, H, Aigrain, S, Thatte, N, Barstow, J, Evans, T, Gibson, N

“…The main science drivers for KMOS are the study of galaxies, star formation, and molecular clouds, but its ability to simultaneously measure spectra of multiple stars makes KMOS an interesting instrument for exoplanet atmosphere characterization via transmission spectroscopy. …”

A chemical survey of exoplanets with ARIEL by Tinetti, G, Drossart, P, Eccleston, P, Hartogh, P, Heske, A, Leconte, J, Micela, G, Ollivier, M, Eccleston, P, Pilbratt, G, Puig, L, Turrini, D, Bowles, N

“…Thousands of exoplanets have now been discovered with a huge range of masses, sizes and orbits: from rocky Earth-like planets to large gas giants grazing the surface of their host star. …”
