Radiative equilibrium calculations show silicate clouds (SiO2, Mg2SiO4) remain thermally stable across wide conditions while sulfide clouds (ZnS, Na2S, MnS) readily reach sublimation temperatures in upper exoplanet atmospheres.

New MAROON-X observations of HAT-P-70b detect multiple neutral and ionized metals with day-to-night wind signatures and demonstrate that ionization-aware retrievals yield abundance ratios closer to solar values except for enhanced nickel.
JWST transmission spectrum of WASP-80 b yields log10 X_CS2 = -2.25 with evidence for carbon-sulfur chemical coupling via CH2S networks.

Radiatively Controlled Thermal Stability of High-Altitude Clouds in Exoplanetary Atmospheres
Radiative equilibrium calculations show silicate clouds (SiO2, Mg2SiO4) remain thermally stable across wide conditions while sulfide clouds (ZnS, Na2S, MnS) readily reach sublimation temperatures in upper exoplanet atmospheres.
