Results of the pRT retrievals for the atmosphere of HD 86226 c. Left: PACMAN spectrum (black data) and 1,2, and 3 σ percentiles of the spectra from the posteriors of the pRT retrieval with scaled solar chemistry (green shadings). The gray spectra show cloud-free models with 1× and 1000× solar metallicity. Right: posterior distribution for the two retrieval runs with scaled solar chemistry (green) and H-He-H₂O atmosphere (purple). The pressures are provided in units of log₁₀([bar]). Contours are drawn at the 1,2, and 3 σ levels. Vertical dashed lines mark the 16%, 50%, and 84% quantiles.
