HITEMP, the high-temperature molecular spectroscopic database

TLDR
In this paper, a new molecular spectroscopic database for high-temperature modeling of the spectra of molecules in the gas phase is described, called HITEMP, which is analogous to the HITRAN database but encompasses many more bands and transitions than HitRAN for the absorbers H2O, CO2, CO, NO and OH.
Abstract
A new molecular spectroscopic database for high-temperature modeling of the spectra of molecules in the gas phase is described. This database, called HITEMP, is analogous to the HITRAN database but encompasses many more bands and transitions than HITRAN for the absorbers H2O, CO2, CO, NO, and OH. HITEMP provides users with a powerful tool for a great many applications: astrophysics, planetary and stellar atmospheres, industrial processes, surveillance, non-local thermodynamic equilibrium problems, and investigating molecular interactions, to name a few. The sources and implementation of the spectroscopic parameters incorporated into HITEMP are discussed.

CLOUDS ON THE HOT JUPITER HD189733b: CONSTRAINTS FROM THE REFLECTION SPECTRUM

TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the NEMESIS atmospheric retrieval code to the recently published HST/STIS reflection spectrum, and also to the dayside thermal emission spectrum in light of new Spitzer/IRAC measurements, as well as their own re-analysis of the HST and NICMOS data.

Phosphine as a Biosignature Gas in Exoplanet Atmospheres

TL;DR: A long-term goal of exoplanet studies is the identification and detection of biosignature gases as mentioned in this paper, but beyond the most discussed bio-signature gas O2, only a handful of gases have been considered in detai...

Self-luminous and Irradiated Exoplanetary Atmospheres Explored with HELIOS

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present new methodological features and physical ingredients included in the 1D radiative transfer code HELIOS, improving the hemispheric two-stream formalism, and conduct a thorough intercomparison survey with several established forward models, including COOLTLUSTY, PHOENIX, and find satisfactory consistency with their results.

A new approach to analysing HST spatial scans: the transmission spectrum of HD 209458 b

TL;DR: In this article, a new pipeline for analyzing the data obtained with the spatial scanning technique, starting from the raw data provided by the HST, is presented, taking into account the geometric distortions of the instrument, whose impact may become important when combined to the scanning process.

The HITRAN 2008 molecular spectroscopic database

TL;DR: The new HITRAN is greatly extended in terms of accuracy, spectral coverage, additional absorption phenomena, added line-shape formalisms, and validity, and molecules, isotopologues, and perturbing gases have been added that address the issues of atmospheres beyond the Earth.

The determination of an accurate isotope dependent potential energy surface for water from extensive ab initio calculations and experimental data

TL;DR: In this article, a high quality ab initio potential energy surface (PES) and dipole moment function (DPM) for water has been determined and an adjusted PES is empirically adjusted to improve the agreement between the computed line positions and those from the HITRAN 92 data base with J⩽5 for H216O.

A high-accuracy computed water line list

TL;DR: The most complete water line list in existence, comprising over 500 million transitions (65 per cent more than any other list) and also the most accurate (over 90 per cent of all known experimental energy levels are within 0.3 cm −1 of the BT2 values) is presented in this article.
