• Atmospheric convection plays a key role in the climate of tidally-locked terrestrial exoplanets: insights from high-resolution simulations 

  Sergeev, D; Lambert, F; Mayne, N; et al. (American Astronomical Society / IOP Publishing, 2020)

  Using a 3D general circulation model (GCM), we investigate the sensitivity of the climate of tidallylocked Earth-like exoplanets, Trappist-1e and Proxima Centauri b, to the choice of a convection parameterization. Compared ...

• TRAPPIST-1 Habitable Atmosphere Intercomparison (THAI): Motivations and protocol version 1.0 

  Fauchez, TJ; Turbet, M; Wolf, ET; et al. (European Geosciences Union (EGU)/Copernicus Publications, 21 February 2020)

  Upcoming telescopes such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT), the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) or the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) may soon be able to characterize, ...

• The resonance lines of sodium and potassium in brown dwarf spectra 

  Peach, G; Yurchenko, S; Chubb, K; et al. (Astronomical Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, 1 January 2020)

  Accurate pressure broadened line profiles of alkali resonance dou-blets are needed for the modelling of atmospheres of cool stars and for generat-ing their synthetic spectra in the region 400 - 900 nm. When the lines utterly ...

• A new set of atmosphere and evolution models for cool T-Y brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets 

  Phillips, MW; Tremblin, P; Baraffe, I; et al. (EDP Sciences, 2 April 2020)

  We present a new set of solar metallicity atmosphere and evolutionary models for very cool brown dwarfs and self-luminous giant exoplanets, which we term ATMO 2020. Atmosphere models are generated with our state-of-the-art ...

• Symmetry and Finite-size Effects in Quasi-optical Extraordinarily THz Transmitting Arrays of Tilted Slots 

  Camacho Aguilar, M; Nekovic, A; Freer, S; et al. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)

  Extraordinarily transmitting arrays are promising candidates for quasi-optical (QO) components due to their high frequency selectivity and beam scanning capabilities owing to the leaky-wave mechanism involved. We show ...
