Issue Date: | 2021 | Journal: | ASTRONOMY & ASTROPHYSICS | Number: | 654 | First Page: | A73 | Abstract: | Ultra-hot Jupiters are defined as giant planets with equilibrium temperatures larger than 2000 K. Most of them are found orbiting bright A-F type stars, making them extremely suitable objects to study their atmospheres using high-resolution spectroscopy. Recent studies show a variety of atoms and molecules detected in the atmospheres of this type of planets. Here we present our analysis of the newly discovered ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-1431 b/MASCARA-5 b, using two transit observations with the HARPS-N spectrograph and one transit observation with the EXPRES spectrograph. Analysis of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect shows that the planet is in a polar orbit, with a projected obliquity λ = −155<SUB>−10</SUB><SUP>+20</SUP> degrees. Combining the nights and applying both cross-correlation methods and transmission spectroscopy, we find no evidences of Ca I, Fe I, Fe II, Mg I, Na I, V I, TiO, VO or Hα in the atmosphere of the planet. Our most likely explanation for the lack of atmospheric features is the large surface gravity of the planet. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/32119 | URL: | http://arxiv.org/abs/2104.12414v1 https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2021/10/aa40100-20/aa40100-20.html |
