New computed rates for excited S(1D) and SO(1Δ) plus a 1 ppm near-surface atomic sulfur source improve photochemical modeling of sulfur species in Venus and exo-Venus atmospheres.
Hycean models with a 1-bar H2 envelope, percent-level CH4 and CO, and CO2 at 10^-3 to 10^-2 reproduce the 0.8-5.2 μm JWST spectra of K2-18b.
