Wakeford: there is a critical need for high-temperature opacities for sulphur-bearing molecules to interpret UV-Optical exoplanet spectra.

Also out today, in a masterpiece of timing, this work (not yet reviewed) arguing K2-18b is most likely a mini Neptune or magma world rather than an ocean planet. HT @astrochara.bsky.social

Planetary albedo is limited by the above-cloud atmosphere: Implications for sub-Neptune climate
Energy limits that delineate the `habitable zone' for exoplanets depend on a given exoplanet's net planetary albedo (or `Bond albedo'). We here demonstrate that the planetary albedo of an observed exo...
