New Survey Detects Silicon Monoxide In Exoplanet Atmosphere
The CRIMSON survey has detected super-stellar silicon monoxide (SiO) in the atmosphere of TWA 5 B, a directly imaged companion. This finding is based on high-resolution M-band spectroscopy and highlights silicon's role as a key refractory element in giant planet atmospheres.
