Direct imaging reveals enhanced metallicity and aligned orbit in 29 Cyg b, supporting protoplanetary disk formation near the deuterium burning limit.
POSEIDON now includes lab-derived rocky surface albedos, enabling JWST emission spectra to separate thin versus thick atmospheres and potentially identify granite-like versus basaltic surfaces.
Tier 1 Ariel spectra suffice for sub-1.5 dex constraints on H2O and CO2 in giant-planet atmospheres, with higher tiers providing only incremental gains and more molecules in select cases.
WASP-96b shows super-solar metallicity of 2-6x stellar, roughly stellar C/O, tentative SO2 consistent with photochemistry, and an optical slope from scattering aerosols, supporting core-accretion formation beyond the water snowline.
New transit observations of WASP-43 b yield no evidence of orbital decay while revealing major challenges in combining multi-instrument data for atmospheric retrievals.
