EChO-specific Spectroscopic Database Being Built

The Status of Spectroscopic Data for the Exoplanet Characterisation Missions

Authors:

Tennyson et al

Abstract:

The status of laboratory spectroscopic data for exoplanet characterisation missions such as EChO is reviewed. For many molecules (eg H2O, CO, CO2, H3+, O2, O3) the data are already available. For the other species work is actively in progress constructing this data. Much of the is work is being undertaken by ExoMol project (www.exomol.com). This information will be used to construct and EChO-specific spectroscopic database.
