Water Absorption In The Transmission Spectrum Of The Water-world Candidate GJ9827d

Recent work on the characterization of small exoplanets has allowed us to accumulate growing evidence that the sub-Neptunes with radii greater than ∼2.5R⊕ often host H2/He-dominated atmospheres both from measurements […]
