Open-source High-resolution Exoplanet Atmosphere Retrievals with POSEIDON.

Abstract (from CDS):

High-resolution spectroscopy (R > 25,000) has opened new opportunities to characterize exoplanet atmospheres from the ground. By resolving individual lines in planetary emission and transmission spectra, one can sensitively probe the chemical inventory and temperature structure of exoplanets. However, a significant challenge to reliable and reproducible atmospheric inferences from high-resolution data sets has been the lack of open-source codes for high-resolution retrievals. Here, we present a unified high-resolution retrieval framework, for both emission and transmission spectroscopy, made publicly available within the open-source POSEIDON retrieval code. Our high-resolution retrieval framework is fast, accessible (no GPUs required), and well documented via Python notebooks. We validate our framework by reproducing previous emission retrievals of the hot Jupiter WASP-77Ab and transmission retrievals of the ultrahot Jupiter WASP-121b. Our results are broadly consistent with those of published works when making the same data detrending assumptions, but we demonstrate that user choices can subtly propagate into retrieved chemical abundances.
