A Measurement of the Water Abundance in the Atmosphere of the Hot Jupiter WASP-43b with High-resolution Cross-correlation Spectroscopy by Dare Bartelt, Megan Weiner Mansfield, Michael R. Line, Vivien Parmentier, Luis Welbanks, Elspeth K. H. Lee, Jorge Sanchez, Arjun B. Savel, Peter C. B. Smith, Emily Rauscher, Joost P. Wardenier

“…In the last decade, high-resolution spectral analyses have become increasingly useful in measuring precise abundances of several carbon- and oxygen-bearing molecules. This allows for a more precise constraint of the C/O ratio. We present four transits of the hot Jupiter WASP-43b observed between 1.45 and 2.45 μ m with the high-resolution Immersion GRating InfraRed Spectrometer on the Gemini-S telescope. …”
