An Alternative Derivation of the Analytic Expression of Transmission Spectra

Earth and Planetary Astrophysics 2018-08-17 v1

Abstract

Under some assumptions, an analytic expression for the transmission spectrum can be obtained, which can form the basis of atmospheric retrievals and allows insight on the degeneracies involved. In this Research Note we present an alternative derivation for the analytic expression of a transmission spectrum.
