Theoretical Transmission Spectra of Exoplanet Atmospheres with Hydrocarbon Haze: Effect of Creation, Growth, and Settling of Haze Particles. II. Dependence on UV Irradiation Intensity, Metallicity, C/O Ratio, Eddy Diffusion Coefficient, and Temperature
2019 The Astrophysical Journal 877 109.
Caption: Figure 9.
Transmission spectrum models for four different atmospheric metallicities: solar (green, same as the green line in Figure 5; “1× Solar”) and 10 times (blue; “10 × solar”), 100 times (red; “100 × solar”), and 1000 times (purple; “1000 × solar”) higher than solar. The thick and thin lines represent the spectra of the haze-covered and haze-free atmospheres, respectively. Note that the transmission spectrum models are smoothed for clarity.
