BOWIE-ALIGN: JWST reveals hints of planetesimal accretion and complex sulphur chemistry in the atmosphere of the misaligned hot Jupiter WASP-15b
We present a transmission spectrum of the misaligned hot Jupiter WASP-15b from 2.8-5.2 microns observed with JWST's NIRSpec/G395H grating. Our high signal-to-noise data, which has negligible red noise, reveals significant absorption by H $_2$O ( $4.2\sigma$) and CO $_2$ ( $8.9\sigma$). From independent data reduction and atmospheric retrieval
