1 00:00:09,830 --> 00:00:07,670 second talk of the day so creech who 2 00:00:12,650 --> 00:00:09,840 will be talking about some hot Jupiter 3 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:12,660 atmospheres all right everyone thank you 4 00:00:15,740 --> 00:00:14,730 for having me here to talk to you my 5 00:00:17,540 --> 00:00:15,750 name is sue Kurt and I'm going to 6 00:00:19,190 --> 00:00:17,550 discuss with you a project I've been 7 00:00:21,140 --> 00:00:19,200 leading over the last few years to study 8 00:00:23,330 --> 00:00:21,150 the atmospheres of five hot Jupiter 9 00:00:27,529 --> 00:00:23,340 exoplanets using the Hubble Space 10 00:00:31,250 --> 00:00:27,539 Telescope so hmm how do I make this go 11 00:00:32,509 --> 00:00:31,260 ah like that wonderful so just as an 12 00:00:33,890 --> 00:00:32,519 outline of my talk I'm going to start 13 00:00:35,329 --> 00:00:33,900 off by first giving a little bit of an 14 00:00:37,490 --> 00:00:35,339 overview of the field of transit 15 00:00:38,810 --> 00:00:37,500 spectroscopy what it is and why we care 16 00:00:41,030 --> 00:00:38,820 about it since I know this is a meeting 17 00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:41,040 for a very multidisciplinary meeting 18 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:42,809 from there I'll move on to what 19 00:00:47,270 --> 00:00:44,489 specifically we were trying to do with 20 00:00:49,250 --> 00:00:47,280 our project I'll move on to the data we 21 00:00:50,510 --> 00:00:49,260 collected and how we analyzed it what we 22 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:50,520 found and then I'll wrap up and 23 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:53,850 summarize okay so just as a quick 24 00:00:57,619 --> 00:00:55,890 overview the last few years have really 25 00:00:59,240 --> 00:00:57,629 been a golden age for exoplanets our 26 00:01:01,340 --> 00:00:59,250 discovery rate has been increasing at an 27 00:01:03,439 --> 00:01:01,350 exponential rate particularly these last 28 00:01:05,749 --> 00:01:03,449 few years we have almost a thousand 29 00:01:07,609 --> 00:01:05,759 confirmed exoplanets today and about 30 00:01:09,020 --> 00:01:07,619 3,000 work candidates to go ahead and 31 00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:09,030 validate and vet so that's really 32 00:01:13,010 --> 00:01:11,280 awesome the problem is for most of these 33 00:01:14,630 --> 00:01:13,020 objects we only have radius or mass 34 00:01:16,609 --> 00:01:14,640 estimates so we know nothing beyond 35 00:01:18,260 --> 00:01:16,619 vaguely how big they are and that's a 36 00:01:19,130 --> 00:01:18,270 problem from an astrobiology perspective 37 00:01:21,020 --> 00:01:19,140 because if we're trying to characterize 38 00:01:22,940 --> 00:01:21,030 their habitability or look for evidence 39 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:22,950 of life we really need to know a lot 40 00:01:27,169 --> 00:01:25,890 more but these observations it's very 41 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:27,179 hard to do that kind of observations 42 00:01:30,350 --> 00:01:28,530 first because the planet is a dim 43 00:01:31,850 --> 00:01:30,360 relative to its star and second because 44 00:01:33,350 --> 00:01:31,860 it's really hard to separate them out so 45 00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:33,360 it's hard to differentiate the planets 46 00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:36,720 emission from the stars emission so for 47 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:37,920 most of these plants are kind of stuck 48 00:01:42,139 --> 00:01:40,530 but for one particular subset of planets 49 00:01:44,270 --> 00:01:42,149 the transiting planets we can do a lot 50 00:01:45,650 --> 00:01:44,280 more so just as a reminder these are the 51 00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:45,660 planets that pass in front of their 52 00:01:49,279 --> 00:01:47,910 stars from our point of view and for 53 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:49,289 these objects we can actually extract 54 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:52,050 low resolution spectra so how do we do 55 00:01:55,910 --> 00:01:54,450 that well there's two phases first in 56 00:01:57,499 --> 00:01:55,920 primary eclipse or transit where the 57 00:02:00,080 --> 00:01:57,509 planet passes in front of its hosts 58 00:02:01,729 --> 00:02:00,090 hosts are thus implanted starlight 59 00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:01,739 filters through the terminator region of 60 00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:03,840 the atmosphere imprinting a very subtle 61 00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:07,110 absorption spectrum when the planet 62 00:02:09,889 --> 00:02:08,670 passes behind its star you go from 63 00:02:11,510 --> 00:02:09,899 seeing the light of the planet and the 64 00:02:13,550 --> 00:02:11,520 star to seeing just a light of the star 65 00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:13,560 so if you difference that out you see 66 00:02:17,380 --> 00:02:15,120 the dayside hemisphere integrated 67 00:02:20,149 --> 00:02:17,390 emission spectrum of the planet 68 00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:20,159 taken together this lets us understand 69 00:02:23,660 --> 00:02:21,599 parameters such as the composition of 70 00:02:25,670 --> 00:02:23,670 the atmosphere its thermal structure and 71 00:02:28,489 --> 00:02:25,680 its dynamics including the presence and 72 00:02:30,289 --> 00:02:28,499 absence of clouds as well as any 73 00:02:34,490 --> 00:02:30,299 atmospheric escape that's going on so 74 00:02:36,199 --> 00:02:34,500 that's really awesome for for these 75 00:02:37,819 --> 00:02:36,209 these measurements are still rather 76 00:02:38,990 --> 00:02:37,829 challenging so the instruments and the 77 00:02:40,399 --> 00:02:39,000 techniques we have today we've mostly 78 00:02:42,259 --> 00:02:40,409 been focusing on planets in the hot 79 00:02:44,539 --> 00:02:42,269 Jupiter class so these are gas giants 80 00:02:46,009 --> 00:02:44,549 like Jupiter that orbit an extremely 81 00:02:47,119 --> 00:02:46,019 Coast and close to their host star so 82 00:02:49,149 --> 00:02:47,129 I'm talking periods of a few days 83 00:02:52,129 --> 00:02:49,159 temperatures of thousands of Kelvin 84 00:02:53,569 --> 00:02:52,139 we're refining our oh so these objects 85 00:02:54,649 --> 00:02:53,579 are interesting in of themselves for 86 00:02:56,539 --> 00:02:54,659 their planetary science from an 87 00:02:57,920 --> 00:02:56,549 astrobiology perspective kind of the 88 00:02:59,689 --> 00:02:57,930 goal is to refine our techniques on 89 00:03:01,429 --> 00:02:59,699 these easy objects and eventually push 90 00:03:02,809 --> 00:03:01,439 down to smaller earth-like planets and 91 00:03:04,580 --> 00:03:02,819 look for bio signatures on that 92 00:03:06,890 --> 00:03:04,590 metabolic bio signatures such as oxygen 93 00:03:07,909 --> 00:03:06,900 and methane and so on and so forth so 94 00:03:08,780 --> 00:03:07,919 that's kind of the kind of the big 95 00:03:10,819 --> 00:03:08,790 picture where we're going from 96 00:03:13,250 --> 00:03:10,829 astrobiology perspective so what exactly 97 00:03:14,689 --> 00:03:13,260 were we doing well what we're really 98 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:14,699 trying to do is bring the field of 99 00:03:19,369 --> 00:03:17,250 transit spectroscopy upon Jupiter's into 100 00:03:20,750 --> 00:03:19,379 its technological maturity and so what 101 00:03:22,670 --> 00:03:20,760 we're doing there is transitioning from 102 00:03:24,229 --> 00:03:22,680 doing one-off studies of aw objects to 103 00:03:26,929 --> 00:03:24,239 really doing a systematic comparative 104 00:03:29,020 --> 00:03:26,939 study the first one really done for a 105 00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:29,030 for hot Jupiters in the near-ir and 106 00:03:33,229 --> 00:03:31,169 towards us and we were allocated a 107 00:03:36,069 --> 00:03:33,239 hundred and fifteen orbits of Hubble 108 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:36,079 time to study 16 different hot Jupiters 109 00:03:39,890 --> 00:03:38,370 using the new wide field camera 3 110 00:03:41,899 --> 00:03:39,900 instron and hubble that was installing 111 00:03:43,939 --> 00:03:41,909 the last servicing mission we're looking 112 00:03:47,390 --> 00:03:43,949 with the g1 41 grizzin which spans oh 113 00:03:50,030 --> 00:03:47,400 I'm just excuse me which spans 1.1 to 114 00:03:52,099 --> 00:03:50,040 1.7 microns and this has two features 115 00:03:53,599 --> 00:03:52,109 that are a huge interest to us first you 116 00:03:55,699 --> 00:03:53,609 have this kind of water absorption band 117 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:55,709 at one point 4 microns so measurements 118 00:03:59,509 --> 00:03:57,090 there can constrain the composition of 119 00:04:01,520 --> 00:03:59,519 the planet second you have this kind of 120 00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:01,530 a window into the planets photosphere at 121 00:04:04,909 --> 00:04:03,120 one point six microns so there are no 122 00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:04,919 mature observers there and that lets us 123 00:04:08,959 --> 00:04:06,209 contained the energy budget of the 124 00:04:10,539 --> 00:04:08,969 planet so those are kind of and this 125 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:10,549 work can only really be done from space 126 00:04:14,749 --> 00:04:12,930 this and that this figure here 127 00:04:18,050 --> 00:04:14,759 illustrates out the black curve here is 128 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:18,060 with c3 sensitivity the red curve is 129 00:04:21,469 --> 00:04:19,650 telluric absorption so absorption from 130 00:04:23,089 --> 00:04:21,479 the Earth's atmosphere and you can see 131 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:23,099 the very same water feature we hope to 132 00:04:27,379 --> 00:04:24,930 observe on exoplanets is also present in 133 00:04:28,969 --> 00:04:27,389 our atmosphere obfuscating observations 134 00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:28,979 so we unfortunately have to go to space 135 00:04:33,110 --> 00:04:30,889 for this kind of work 136 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:33,120 this slide here has just meant too ill 137 00:04:37,820 --> 00:04:36,210 to introduce you to our targets so each 138 00:04:39,409 --> 00:04:37,830 of these black diamonds is a transiting 139 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:39,419 exoplanet these are the known transiting 140 00:04:46,850 --> 00:04:43,010 hot Jupiters as of this past September 141 00:04:49,129 --> 00:04:46,860 the on the targets an hour an hour study 142 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:49,139 are circled in either circled in blue or 143 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:51,330 boxed in red depending on whether we 144 00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:52,650 observe them in transition or eclipse 145 00:04:57,050 --> 00:04:55,290 some we observe in both the planets that 146 00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:57,060 we specifically that I specifically I'm 147 00:05:02,659 --> 00:04:59,330 going to present to you are in green ah 148 00:05:04,879 --> 00:05:02,669 the our sample includes includes a very 149 00:05:06,350 --> 00:05:04,889 broad range of diversity it includes 150 00:05:08,870 --> 00:05:06,360 planets with and without a thermal 151 00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:08,880 inversion and we and planets that are 152 00:05:12,350 --> 00:05:10,290 bloated and planets that are non bloated 153 00:05:14,659 --> 00:05:12,360 so we have a pretty broad range of the 154 00:05:16,010 --> 00:05:14,669 hot Jupiters in our sample so the 155 00:05:18,379 --> 00:05:16,020 planets I'm going to discuss today we 156 00:05:20,090 --> 00:05:18,389 have three of them in transmission one 157 00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:20,100 of them in emission and one of them was 158 00:05:26,420 --> 00:05:22,320 four in both oh dear laser pointers 159 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:26,430 dying how sad okay so those are objects 160 00:05:30,980 --> 00:05:29,250 what did we do to them well the what we 161 00:05:33,439 --> 00:05:30,990 basically did is we use Hubble to image 162 00:05:35,629 --> 00:05:33,449 to take a time series of spectra during 163 00:05:37,940 --> 00:05:35,639 the course of an event so as the planet 164 00:05:39,650 --> 00:05:37,950 transited or went through an eclipse we 165 00:05:41,270 --> 00:05:39,660 continually image the star and to expect 166 00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:41,280 drove it we converted these two 167 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:43,620 dimensional spectra and 21 them into a 168 00:05:47,300 --> 00:05:45,930 one dimensional extracted spectrum we 169 00:05:49,580 --> 00:05:47,310 did background subtraction do and to 170 00:05:51,409 --> 00:05:49,590 correct out for the effects of residual 171 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:51,419 starlight or whatever and that's all we 172 00:05:54,830 --> 00:05:52,650 did to the data so that's what you get 173 00:05:56,719 --> 00:05:54,840 with very minimal processing we've been 174 00:05:58,370 --> 00:05:56,729 down the data if so we'd agree to this 175 00:05:59,719 --> 00:05:58,380 the spectral resolution in order to 176 00:06:02,930 --> 00:05:59,729 improve the precision per wavelength 177 00:06:04,159 --> 00:06:02,940 element so that's what these vertical 178 00:06:05,659 --> 00:06:04,169 lines here are they do market the 179 00:06:07,850 --> 00:06:05,669 wavelength ins we broke down our spectra 180 00:06:09,620 --> 00:06:07,860 into so what do you get if you do that 181 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:09,630 well you get something that looks like 182 00:06:14,810 --> 00:06:11,490 this so this is the transit light curve 183 00:06:16,250 --> 00:06:14,820 for the planet wasp for an integrated 184 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:16,260 white light so if integrated across the 185 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:18,450 entire band pass and so right off the 186 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:20,370 bat you see our transit you see the dip 187 00:06:24,830 --> 00:06:22,530 in starlight due to the passage of the 188 00:06:26,270 --> 00:06:24,840 planet in front of the star and without 189 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:26,280 any post-processing that's already 190 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:27,690 evident so this is already a huge 191 00:06:31,250 --> 00:06:29,130 improvement from Nick MOS and other 192 00:06:33,529 --> 00:06:31,260 instruments in space so this is a very 193 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:33,539 good sign for with c3 there's a 194 00:06:36,620 --> 00:06:35,250 systematic that's evident that's that's 195 00:06:39,050 --> 00:06:36,630 this kind of ramp effect which are 196 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:39,060 rapidly rises and levels off but that's 197 00:06:42,020 --> 00:06:40,289 the only one and what's good about 198 00:06:43,340 --> 00:06:42,030 what's good news about that is that it's 199 00:06:44,870 --> 00:06:43,350 highly periodic 200 00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:44,880 means we can remove it without reference 201 00:06:49,130 --> 00:06:47,280 to an instrument model so we to remove 202 00:06:51,740 --> 00:06:49,140 this effect we follow the divide method 203 00:06:53,270 --> 00:06:51,750 pioneered by Berta at all the bit is 204 00:06:54,740 --> 00:06:53,280 deliberate our advisors Canadian and 205 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:54,750 Zach when I'd have a little bit of fun 206 00:06:58,760 --> 00:06:57,330 with them and so the way that works is 207 00:07:00,740 --> 00:06:58,770 you take the two out of transit orbits 208 00:07:02,090 --> 00:07:00,750 you average them together and divide 209 00:07:04,130 --> 00:07:02,100 them into the in transit orbits and 210 00:07:07,340 --> 00:07:04,140 voila you end up with the photon noise 211 00:07:08,810 --> 00:07:07,350 limited light curve and so that's really 212 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:08,820 great we're able to decorah late without 213 00:07:11,690 --> 00:07:10,290 reference to an instrument model we care 214 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:11,700 about this because the predecessor to 215 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:15,090 with c3 Nick most required an instrument 216 00:07:19,220 --> 00:07:16,770 model to D correlate systemic effects 217 00:07:20,630 --> 00:07:19,230 and that and that introduced a lot of a 218 00:07:21,980 --> 00:07:20,640 kind of discussion that people weren't 219 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:21,990 really sure whether the features you are 220 00:07:25,010 --> 00:07:23,490 getting out of those spectra would you 221 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:25,020 do the instrument or we're due to 222 00:07:27,770 --> 00:07:26,130 something that was actually asked you're 223 00:07:30,580 --> 00:07:27,780 physically there so we sidestepped that 224 00:07:33,740 --> 00:07:30,590 debate entirely with this with our work 225 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:33,750 once you have those d correlated d 226 00:07:38,330 --> 00:07:35,490 correlated light curves you fit a 227 00:07:39,650 --> 00:07:38,340 transit model in each channel so you the 228 00:07:41,060 --> 00:07:39,660 only free parameter allows depth 229 00:07:42,590 --> 00:07:41,070 everything else is locked down to either 230 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:42,600 the literature values or what you 231 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:44,130 compute from theoretical stellar models 232 00:07:47,540 --> 00:07:45,930 and you estimate the errors in two 233 00:07:49,550 --> 00:07:47,550 different ways Markov chain Monte Carlo 234 00:07:50,780 --> 00:07:49,560 and residual permutations and you choose 235 00:07:51,980 --> 00:07:50,790 whichever gives you the larger error 236 00:07:53,630 --> 00:07:51,990 since you're looking at different 237 00:07:56,060 --> 00:07:53,640 sources of error so we're trying to be 238 00:08:00,260 --> 00:07:56,070 as conservative as we can in estimating 239 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:00,270 a precision so what do you find well you 240 00:08:02,990 --> 00:08:01,410 find something that looks like this 241 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:03,000 these four plots here are the 242 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:04,770 transmission spectrum we extracted for 243 00:08:09,830 --> 00:08:07,170 the 444 of the planets in our survey so 244 00:08:12,740 --> 00:08:09,840 that's trace to trace for core 01 and 245 00:08:15,950 --> 00:08:12,750 wasp or three of these are pretty 246 00:08:18,110 --> 00:08:15,960 similar trace to trace for and Kuro one 247 00:08:20,870 --> 00:08:18,120 are all very similar essentially flat I 248 00:08:22,850 --> 00:08:20,880 present here a schematic I presenter and 249 00:08:25,370 --> 00:08:22,860 the example of trace to to kind of zoom 250 00:08:27,380 --> 00:08:25,380 in and discuss the black points are the 251 00:08:29,180 --> 00:08:27,390 transmission spectra that we derived the 252 00:08:31,850 --> 00:08:29,190 red point is just a simple flat line fit 253 00:08:34,130 --> 00:08:31,860 the blue points are conventional solar 254 00:08:37,130 --> 00:08:34,140 composition oxygen-rich atmospheric 255 00:08:39,170 --> 00:08:37,140 model and the green points are a more 256 00:08:40,850 --> 00:08:39,180 exotic carbon-rich atmospheric model 257 00:08:45,950 --> 00:08:40,860 models courtesy of nickel mother's to 258 00:08:47,390 --> 00:08:45,960 them the basic the what we basically say 259 00:08:48,890 --> 00:08:47,400 out of this is that all the models for 260 00:08:50,030 --> 00:08:48,900 the data equally well our precision is 261 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:50,040 not high enough to differentiate between 262 00:08:55,130 --> 00:08:53,370 them however what we can do is rule out 263 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:55,140 atmosphere creations on the scale of 10 264 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:56,730 scale heights or more 265 00:08:59,389 --> 00:08:58,050 and this is significant because there 266 00:09:01,340 --> 00:08:59,399 have been atmospheric models published 267 00:09:03,470 --> 00:09:01,350 which called for variations of this size 268 00:09:07,550 --> 00:09:03,480 so we can at least show that such models 269 00:09:09,620 --> 00:09:07,560 are not typical the case of wasp or is a 270 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:09,630 little more exotic and for this we 271 00:09:14,569 --> 00:09:11,730 actually do see a source of absorption I 272 00:09:16,519 --> 00:09:14,579 should clarify here that since so the 273 00:09:18,470 --> 00:09:16,529 y-axis here is the effective 274 00:09:20,329 --> 00:09:18,480 planet-sized so absorption shows up as a 275 00:09:21,110 --> 00:09:20,339 larger effective planet so in case 276 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:21,120 you're wondering by an absorption 277 00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:23,730 feature goes up so we have an absorption 278 00:09:26,780 --> 00:09:25,320 feature at one point three microns this 279 00:09:27,829 --> 00:09:26,790 is super weird because we don't expect 280 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:27,839 there to be absorption at one point 281 00:09:32,780 --> 00:09:29,370 three microns so we expected to see same 282 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:32,790 thing here but we don't and so so this 283 00:09:35,689 --> 00:09:33,930 is actually fairly significant 284 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:35,699 traditional cloud-free atmospheric 285 00:09:39,500 --> 00:09:37,410 models are ruled out at ten sigma or 286 00:09:41,660 --> 00:09:39,510 greater so this is for so there's 287 00:09:42,949 --> 00:09:41,670 something here on the first thing we did 288 00:09:44,389 --> 00:09:42,959 is we went back and put this through a 289 00:09:46,579 --> 00:09:44,399 whole battery of tests to see if you 290 00:09:48,139 --> 00:09:46,589 could explain this effect from ah from 291 00:09:50,569 --> 00:09:48,149 stellar activity or from instrumental 292 00:09:52,220 --> 00:09:50,579 effects we can't so far we want to be 293 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:52,230 very conservative of this whole thing so 294 00:09:55,310 --> 00:09:53,490 we're not claiming the detection of a 295 00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:55,320 new feature we are saying that there is 296 00:09:59,180 --> 00:09:56,880 grounds for further follow-up studies 297 00:10:00,290 --> 00:09:59,190 including follow-up observations as well 298 00:10:04,370 --> 00:10:00,300 as reanalysis using independent 299 00:10:06,170 --> 00:10:04,380 techniques of this data set we also 300 00:10:08,150 --> 00:10:06,180 derived thermal emission spectra for two 301 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:08,160 planets so one of those was lost for so 302 00:10:12,829 --> 00:10:10,170 we have wasp porn transmission and in 303 00:10:14,379 --> 00:10:12,839 the mission ah so this is a little bit 304 00:10:17,870 --> 00:10:14,389 of a busy diagram so I'm going to try to 305 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:17,880 explicate it a little bit so we what we 306 00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:20,250 have or down over here is our data but 307 00:10:23,210 --> 00:10:21,839 we also have a little bit of other data 308 00:10:24,980 --> 00:10:23,220 other folks if found so this is a 309 00:10:26,949 --> 00:10:24,990 broadband point from Casares at all and 310 00:10:29,540 --> 00:10:26,959 this is from the Spitzer Space Telescope 311 00:10:31,730 --> 00:10:29,550 you have a three different model shown 312 00:10:34,490 --> 00:10:31,740 here one of them in red is an 313 00:10:36,620 --> 00:10:34,500 oxygen-rich model with an atmospheric 314 00:10:39,050 --> 00:10:36,630 inversion so that's a TP profile over 315 00:10:41,389 --> 00:10:39,060 here and you also have two non-inverted 316 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:41,399 atmospheres one oxygen rich in blue and 317 00:10:46,340 --> 00:10:44,370 one carbon rich in green our data 318 00:10:48,590 --> 00:10:46,350 specifically is shown zoomed in here in 319 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:48,600 this inset and the bottom line is that 320 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:51,569 we we strongly disfavor water-rich 321 00:10:55,100 --> 00:10:53,610 models we seem to we seem to be much 322 00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:55,110 more consistent with water poor models 323 00:10:59,600 --> 00:10:57,000 and in particular non-inverted 324 00:11:00,800 --> 00:10:59,610 atmospheres and by not inverted I don't 325 00:11:02,389 --> 00:11:00,810 mean strongly non-inverted which would 326 00:11:04,750 --> 00:11:02,399 look something like that but we clean on 327 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:04,760 adverted isothermal atmospheres and 328 00:11:09,820 --> 00:11:06,930 non-inverting as fears are ruled out 329 00:11:11,710 --> 00:11:09,830 particularly by the spitzer data so the 330 00:11:15,670 --> 00:11:11,720 kind of food data we have right now is a 331 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:15,680 carbon-rich non-inverted model we have 332 00:11:20,620 --> 00:11:17,890 we derive similar results or trace three 333 00:11:21,820 --> 00:11:20,630 to explicate data data here our data is 334 00:11:24,850 --> 00:11:21,830 shown over here and zoomed in on this 335 00:11:26,620 --> 00:11:24,860 inset spitzer measurements are here and 336 00:11:28,030 --> 00:11:26,630 ground-based measurements are here the 337 00:11:30,610 --> 00:11:28,040 green curve is a solar composition 338 00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:30,620 atmosphere the brown curve is a depleted 339 00:11:34,990 --> 00:11:33,110 volatile atmosphere so depleted by by a 340 00:11:37,780 --> 00:11:35,000 factor of 10 relative to solar and water 341 00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:37,790 and carbon dioxide and we also show a 342 00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:39,110 black body which corresponds to an 343 00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:42,710 isothermal atmosphere and the lot of the 344 00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:44,780 upshot is between the our data and the 345 00:11:49,630 --> 00:11:47,690 Spitzer data we're able to constrain out 346 00:11:51,370 --> 00:11:49,640 the isothermal atmospheres as well as 347 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:51,380 the solar composition atmosphere the 348 00:11:55,420 --> 00:11:52,850 best competent the best fit seems to be 349 00:11:57,310 --> 00:11:55,430 from a depleted volatile atmosphere so 350 00:11:58,960 --> 00:11:57,320 what's the upshot of all of this well 351 00:12:00,580 --> 00:11:58,970 the first in perhaps the most important 352 00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:00,590 result as this is that we demonstrate 353 00:12:04,090 --> 00:12:02,570 that with c3 is a very suitable 354 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:04,100 instrument for these kind of broad based 355 00:12:08,290 --> 00:12:06,530 studies of exoplanet atmospheres so you 356 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:08,300 can get strong good reliable 357 00:12:10,990 --> 00:12:09,890 transmission spectra from this and this 358 00:12:15,340 --> 00:12:11,000 instrument is great for exoplanets 359 00:12:16,900 --> 00:12:15,350 science for our target specifically we 360 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:16,910 derive for transmission spectra and two 361 00:12:20,410 --> 00:12:19,130 emission spectra from our emission 362 00:12:22,060 --> 00:12:20,420 spectra we show that larger that 363 00:12:23,950 --> 00:12:22,070 atmospheric models with large scale 364 00:12:25,630 --> 00:12:23,960 variations are not common so things that 365 00:12:27,670 --> 00:12:25,640 happen so if you have an atmospheric 366 00:12:29,230 --> 00:12:27,680 model that has variations of more than 367 00:12:30,370 --> 00:12:29,240 10 scale heights that's probably not 368 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:30,380 going to be very common in the hot 369 00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:33,250 Jupiter class at least if it stays free 370 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:35,690 we identify a potential new feature in 371 00:12:38,590 --> 00:12:37,010 the wasp for atmosphere that reserves 372 00:12:40,900 --> 00:12:38,600 follow-up and bass are an emission 373 00:12:42,580 --> 00:12:40,910 spectra we find that our exoplanets are 374 00:12:46,090 --> 00:12:42,590 a little bit more water port than we 375 00:12:47,380 --> 00:12:46,100 expected them to be and if you really 376 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:47,390 want to nail down the water composition 377 00:12:50,740 --> 00:12:49,130 we also show that since we're spectively 378 00:12:52,210 --> 00:12:50,750 photon noise limited what you really 379 00:12:54,130 --> 00:12:52,220 want is more photon so you need to do a 380 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:54,140 multi visit observing campaign if you 381 00:12:58,540 --> 00:12:55,970 want to really try to characterize the 382 00:13:01,810 --> 00:12:58,550 abundance of water because this seems to 383 00:13:03,070 --> 00:13:01,820 be more water poor than expected so 384 00:13:04,150 --> 00:13:03,080 that's roughly where so that's roughly 385 00:13:19,869 --> 00:13:04,160 where we're at I'd love to take 386 00:13:25,100 --> 00:13:22,309 certainly so I'm not an expert on this I 387 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:25,110 would really absolutely so the question 388 00:13:29,059 --> 00:13:26,730 was could I elaborate more on what i 389 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:29,069 mean by carbon-rich atmospheres um so 390 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:30,810 I'm not an expert on this the seminal 391 00:13:35,179 --> 00:13:32,250 paper certain my new COO mother's to 392 00:13:36,470 --> 00:13:35,189 them but basically so so so 393 00:13:38,749 --> 00:13:36,480 traditionally in exoplanets we always 394 00:13:39,650 --> 00:13:38,759 assume that okay a hot Jupiters 395 00:13:42,410 --> 00:13:39,660 atmosphere is probably going to be 396 00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:42,420 similar to its star and and generally 397 00:13:45,769 --> 00:13:43,769 that means you have a carbon to oxygen 398 00:13:46,699 --> 00:13:45,779 ratio that's less than one if on the 399 00:13:49,189 --> 00:13:46,709 other hand you have a carbon to oxygen 400 00:13:50,269 --> 00:13:49,199 ratio that's greater than one on the 401 00:13:51,350 --> 00:13:50,279 what all the water is going to go away 402 00:13:52,819 --> 00:13:51,360 and all you're going to be left with is 403 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:52,829 a bunch of carbon compounds so the 404 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:53,970 atmospheric spectrum will be really 405 00:13:58,639 --> 00:13:56,490 different a carbon-rich a rat mysterious 406 00:14:01,009 --> 00:13:58,649 claim for the exoplanet lost 12 it was 407 00:14:03,110 --> 00:14:01,019 later disfavored based on based on re 408 00:14:04,670 --> 00:14:03,120 analysis of the data however it still 409 00:14:13,730 --> 00:14:04,680 remains a valid possibility that we need 410 00:14:15,079 --> 00:14:13,740 to consider go ahead so the question was 411 00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:15,089 if we had to speculate on what the wasp 412 00:14:19,249 --> 00:14:16,769 or feature was what would he expect it 413 00:14:20,689 --> 00:14:19,259 be the answers we have no idea we spent 414 00:14:23,509 --> 00:14:20,699 literally about a year trying to follow 415 00:14:24,499 --> 00:14:23,519 up and figure out ways the to explain 416 00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:24,509 what was going wrong because we were 417 00:14:28,009 --> 00:14:26,310 pretty sure we were wrong the only 418 00:14:29,150 --> 00:14:28,019 reason I'm presenting it to you now is 419 00:14:30,439 --> 00:14:29,160 that we couldn't figure out why we were 420 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:30,449 wrong so we have to conclude that maybe 421 00:14:33,530 --> 00:14:32,250 it's real the reason we were so 422 00:14:35,689 --> 00:14:33,540 conservative is that there exists 423 00:14:37,639 --> 00:14:35,699 nothing in conventional hot Jupiter line 424 00:14:40,519 --> 00:14:37,649 lists that absorbs there in any
