dopplerkernel parametrizes UHJ projected winds with four parameters (v_jet, sigma_jet, v_wind, phi_sink) and retrieves jet and day-to-night flows from synthetic WASP-76b K-band emission spectra generated by three GCMs.
A simulated 2.5-year multi-band photometric survey is projected to detect ~100 young transiting planets, sufficient to measure their occurrence rate to 5% precision and differentiate gas-dwarf versus water-world formation scenarios.
WASP-96b shows super-solar metallicity of 2-6x stellar, roughly stellar C/O, tentative SO2 consistent with photochemistry, and an optical slope from scattering aerosols, supporting core-accretion formation beyond the water snowline.
