Recent detections of thermal inversions in the dayside atmospheres of some hot Jupiters are motivating new avenues to understand the interplay between their temperature structures and other atmospheric conditions. In particular, TiO has…
We have computed a grid of high resolution synthetic spectra for cool stars (2500<Teff<6000 K) in the wavelength range 6000 -- 10200A, by employing an updated line list of atomic and molecular lines, together with state-of-the-art model…
The atmospheres of M stars are dominated by a small number of very strong molecular compounds (H$_2$O, TiO, H$_2$, CO, VO). Most of the hydrogen is locked in molecular H$_2$, most of the carbon in CO; and H$_2$O, TiO and VO opacities define…
Using previous measurements and quantum chemical calculations to derive the molecular properties of the TiH molecule, we obtain new values for its ro-vibrational constants, thermochemical data, spectral line lists, line strengths, and…
We present synthetic optical spectra in the range 640-930 nm of a sample of field L dwarfs and the brown dwarf GL229B. Our computations show that Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs govern the spectra of these objects, with Na and K contributing…
Evolutionary and atmospheric models have become available for young ultralow-mass objects. These models are being used to determine fundamental parameters from observational properties. TiO bands are used to determine effective temperatures…
With a temperature akin to an M-dwarf, WASP-33b is among the hottest Jupiters known, making it an ideal target for high-resolution optical spectroscopy. By analyzing both transmission and emission spectra, we aim to substantiate previous…
This study is based on the use of the new ExoMol TiO rovibronic line lists to identify and model TiO isotopologue features in spectra of M-dwarfs. We aim to investigate problems involving the computation of electronic bands for different…
We introduce a new color index consisting of two spectral band width to measure TiO absorption band strength centered at 567 nm. Based on the most up-to-date line list for TiO we regenerate a grid of synthesized spectra and investigate the…
The atmospheres of very cool, hydrogen-rich white dwarfs (Teff <6000 K) are challenging to models because of the increased complexity of the equation of state, chemical equilibrium, and opacity sources in a low-temperature, weakly ionized…
Ultracool stellar atmospheres show absorption by alkali resonance lines severely broadened by collisions with neutral perturbers. In the coolest and densest atmospheres, such as those of T dwarfs, Na I and K I broadened by molecular…
The discovery of the near infrared windows into the Venus deep atmosphere has enabled the use of remote sensing techniques to study the composition of the Venus atmosphere below the clouds. In particular, water vapor absorption lines can be…
By careful searching of synthetic and observed spectra in a sample of cool giant and supergiant stars, we have updated the continuum band-passes of near-infrared Wing three filter system. This photometric system measures the strength of…
TiO plays an important role in determining the atmospheric structure of M-type stars and in shaping the visual part of their spectra. We compute synthetic spectra for late-type M giants and identify systematic discrepancies in the…
Theoretical aspects of modeling of spectra of late M- and L-dwarfs are discussed. We show, that the processes of formation of spectra of M- and L-dwarfs are basically different. Instead of the case of M-dwarfs, atoms of Ti and V should be…
Stellar, substellar, and planetary atmosphere models are all highly sensitive to the input opacities. Generational differences between various state-of-the-art stellar/planetary models are primarily because of incomplete and outdated…
We have generated new, self-consistent spectral and atmosphere models for the effective temperature range 600 K to 1300 K thought to encompass the known T dwarfs. For the first time, theoretical models are compared with a {\it family} of…
M star spectra, at wavelengths beyond 1.35 $\mu$m, are dominated by water vapour yet terrestrial water vapour makes it notoriously difficult to make accurate measurement from ground-based observations. We have used the short wavelength…
We observed a sample of 20 M giants with the Infrared Spectrograph on the Spitzer Space Telescope. Most show absorption structure at 6.6-6.8 um which we identify as water vapor, and in some cases, the absorption extends from 6.4 um into the…
We rediscuss the temperature of O dwarfs based on new non-LTE line blanketed atmosphere models including stellar winds computed with the CMFGEN code of Hillier & Miller (1998). Compared to the latest calibration of Vacca et al. (1996), the…
