Vandaag is met een speciaal wegtransport vanuit Zwitserland de geïsoleerde 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.

The goal of this workshop is to define and implement a roadmap for a detailed intercomparison project between multiple leading computational frameworks of magma ocean evolution. bit.ly/3IZbJyn

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 🪐🔭🧪

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. Image credit: SciTechDaily.com

My periodic reminder for #astrosci #astrodon #exoplanets Early Career Researchers to please, please, please have a simple web site with your current email address on it - rationale here: kenworthy.space/advice/
A pen sketch of a web page for an astronomer, showing name, email, optional phone number, and professional contact details, with a one sentence summary of their research and an ADS link.

Last day of the #HWO25 meeting! The meeting had great talks, discussions and a lot of enthusiasm for HWO, great to be part of this community 😊!
stsci.edu Space Telescope Science Institute @stsci.edu · Jul 29
The event for NASA's Habitable Worlds Observatory brought together scientists, engineers, and industry officials to propel the development of HWO—a mission expected to usher in a new era of astrophysics discovery and address one of humanity's oldest questions "Are we alone?" #HWO2025 #HWO25 🔭 🧪 ☄️

Machine learning 🤖 + spectrometry 🧪 = astrobiology? 🌱🪐☄️🔭 Michael Wong @miquai.bsky.social & Anirudh Prabhu @anirudhprabhu.bsky.social of Carnegie EPL will discuss new biosignature detection methods at the next #RockyWorldsDiscussion Thu 5 June @ 13:00 UTC!

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. Image credit: NASA

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
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...
