Description

README This file contains the model spectra presented in Morley et al. 2017, Observing the Atmospheres of Known Temperate Earth-sized Planets with JWST. The models are organized as follows: ########################## ## Transmission spectra ## ########################## transmission_spectra contains 4 folders: alb0.0_massradiusrel includes models with Bond albedo=0.0, and planet masses assuming the Weiss & Marcy 2014 mass-radius relationship alb0.3_massradiusrel includes models with Bond albedo=0.3, and planet masses assuming the Weiss & Marcy 2014 mass-radius relationship alb0.0_measured_masses includes models with Bond albedo=0.0, and observed planet masses, as described in Morley et al. 2017 alb0.3_measured_masses includes models with Bond albedo=0.3, and observed planet masses, as described in Morley et al. 2017 each file contains the wavelength and model transit depth from 0.3 to 250 microns, calculated at 1 cm-1 wavenumber resolution. The file name indicates the planet name, model surface pressure (in bar), Bond albedo, and the assumed composition (Earth-, Venus-, or Titan-based compositions, calculated in chemical equilibrium at each layer of the model, as described in Morley et al. 2017). (e.g. trans_spect_massradiusrel_gj1132b_psurf0.1_alb0.0_chem_earth.p.txt is a model of GJ 1132b, assuming the Weiss/Marcy mass-radius relationship, with a surface pressure of 0.1 bar, Bond albedo of 0.0, and an Earth-based composition). ########################## ## Emission spectra ## ########################## emission_spectra contains 4 folders: alb0.0 includes models with Bond albedo=0.0 alb0.3 includes models with Bond albedo=0.3 alb0.7 includes models with Bond albedo=0.7 emission_spectra_dividestar includes models that have already been divided by a model stellar spectrum, for convenience. each file contains the wavelength and model thermal emission flux in W/m2/m from 0.3 to 250 microns, calculated at 1 cm-1 wavenumber resolution. The file name indicates the planet name, model surface pressure (in bar), Bond albedo, and the assumed composition (Earth-, Venus-, or Titan-based compositions, calculated in chemical equilibrium at each layer of the model, as described in Morley et al. 2017). (e.g. gj1132b_psurf0.01_alb0.0_chem_earth.spec is a model of GJ 1132b with a surface pressure of 0.01 bar, Bond albedo of 0.0, and an Earth-based composition). The models in emission_spectra_dividestar instead contain the flux of the planet divided by the flux of the star. ########################## ## Eclipse Depths ## ########################## eclipse_depths contains a file for each planet with calculated eclipse depths for each of the wide-band JWST MIRI filters (http://ircamera.as.arizona.edu/MIRI/pces.htm). (new version from Jan 29 2018 has fixed a bug in MIRI eclipse depths that affected the longest wavelength filter for GJ 1132b and LHS 1140b only).
