Feature-rich transmission spectrum for WASP-127b. Cloud-free skies for the puffiest known super-Neptune?
Context. WASP-127b is a planet with one of the lowest densities discovered to date. With a sub-Saturn mass (Mp = 0.18 ± 0.02 MJ) and super-Jupiter radius (Rp = 1.37 ± 0.04 RJ), it orbits a bright G5 star that is about to leave the main-sequence. Aims: We aim to explore the atmosphere of WASP-127b in order to retrieve its main atmospheric components
