GOOSEBUMPS GUARANTEED...!!!! 😍 - Team India singing 'Vande Maataram' with Wankhede crowd. 🇮🇳
Presented our work today at #exoplanets5 ! It has indeed been a memorable experience! Also thank you @smastrophysics - my conference partner for a decade now!


In the JWST era, what do existing ground-based instruments offer for exoplanet atmospheres (specifically hot Jupiters and Ultra hot Jupiters), and what will the ELT achieve? Check out our article accepted in ApJ. Congratulations @AstrophileDubey! arxiv.org/abs/2406.12240

Mooi nieuw resultaat van o.a. @barat_saugata en @jmdesert met de @NASAHubble ruimtetelescoop: Voor het eerst een transmissiespectrum van een exoplaneet waargenomen. api.uva.nl/nl/content/nie…
Hubble caught 20-30 Myr old planet V1298 Tau b in mid-evolution. Currently Jupiter-sized, its metal-poor, haze-free atmosphere is depleted in methane, suggesting a hot interior. It will likely become a (sub-)Neptune. @barat_saugata, @jmdesert et al.: nature.com/articles/s4155…
