Vandaag is met een speciaal wegtransport vanuit Zwitserland de geΓ―soleerde behuizing van het METIS-instrument aangekomen bij de Universiteit Leiden. Deze zogenoemde cryostaat koelt de onderdelen van het METIS, een van de eerste instrumenten van de Extremely Large Telescope.

An image of the speaker, Kazumasa Ohno. He is smiling and looking into the camera. He is wearing a navy blue cable-knit jumper with a checkered shirt, and glasses. He is against a background of what appears to be other people as the photo is seemingly cropped from a group photo. Artistic illustration of sub-Neptune TOI-421 b. A hypothetical exoplanet with similar banding to Jupiter, but in blue colours, is shown in the foreground. In the distant, the planet's host star is shown, which is a warm golden colour and shows diffraction spikes.

Cloudy with a chance of... haze? Aerosol? Carbon dioxide?!🌦️

Next #RockyWorldsDiscussion on Thu 2 Oct @ 13:00 UTC will feature Kazumasa Ohno (NAOJ) and recent JWST results that lift the hazy veil on the composition of sub-Neptune #exoplanet GJ 1214 b πŸͺπŸ”­πŸ§ͺ

Two images side-by-side of the speakers. Both speakers are smiling and looking at the camera, and both are stood against a blurry, leafy background. 

Left: Michael Wong. He is wearing a pink shirt over a graphic tee. The bottom half of it is cut off, but the top half is seen to say "Support Your..." above what appears to be a globe. 

Right: Anirudh Prabhu. He is wearing an off-white button-down shirt with a faintly pin-striped black blazer over it. Artist’s conception of what life could look like on the surface of a rocky exoplanet. A planetary surface, similar to that of Mars or desert-regions of Earth, covers the image horizontally. The sky is a dark brownish orange-red, not dissimilar in colours of the surface. In the foreground, there is a green lagoon-looking pool, with an underwater cave visible beneath the clear water surface. In the background, in the sky, a close-up and seemingly active star (Sun) with three minor planetary bodies in front of it like moons.

Metal-Enriched Atmospheres in Warm (Super- and Sub-)Neptunes Induced by Extreme Atmospheric Escape Planet formation impacts exoplanet atmospheres by accreting metals in solid form, leading to atmospheric C/O and S/N ratios that deviate from their host stars. Recent observations indicate differing m...

Congrats Amy on your new paper :) ! Here we study the metal-enriched Atmospheres in Warm (Super- and Sub-)Neptunes induced by extreme atmospheric escape and how this affects the evolution and spectral signatures of planets at their different ages: arxiv.org/abs/2505.06013
