Coupling Bern formation models with extended chemical equilibrium including S and N shows equilibration depletes atmospheric nitrogen, shifts C/O higher outside the ice line, generates Si species, and leaves sulfur abundances weakly dependent on formation location.
The Nautilus Space Observatory constellation is proposed to deliver the first statistical map of sub-Neptune atmospheric diversity through uniform population-level observations.
The Nautilus Space Observatory white paper outlines four science objectives for tracking planetary evolution timescales, atmospheric mass loss, mean molecular weight and C/O changes, and helium-dominated worlds using proposed high-resolution, broad-wavelength telescope capabilities.
