Comment on How we first found iron in the atmosphere of KELT-9b on paper

Dec 16, 2019

Hi Kevin,

we detected metals including iron and possibly titanium in the extended atmosphere of WASP-12b and published it in
Haswell, Fossati et al 2012: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/0004-637X/760/1/79/pdf
and
Fossati, Haswell et al 2010 https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2041-8205/714/2/L222/pdf
so I'd suggest you made "Second discovery of iron and titanium in the atmosphere of an ultra-hot Jupiter"

Hard to keep up with everything in this field, I know!
