Early Time Small-scale Structures in Hot Exoplanet Atmosphere Simulations
The Astrophysical JournalAbstract We report on the critical influence of small-scale flow structures (e.g., fronts, vortices, and waves) that immediately arise in hot exoplanet atmosphere simulations initialized with a resting state. A hot, 1:1 spin–orbit synchronized Jupiter is used here as a clear example; but, the phenomenon is generic and important for any ...

Constraining Exoplanet Structure and Composition: Linking Theory & Observations
, 2022 Since the discovery of first exoplanet by the end of the twentieth century, technological advancements have hugely extended our understanding of planetary systems. The large number of discovered exoplanets has unveiled a staggering diversity in their nature, leading to the surprising conclusion that our Solar System may not be a typical system.

Coupled Planetary Interior and Tidal Evolution
The Astrophysical JournalWe present a new planetary structure/thermal evolution model, designed for use in problems that couple orbital dynamics with planetary structure. We first benchmark our structural/thermal evolution calculations against the MESA stellar evolution code ...

Pulsating stars harbouring planets
, 2011 Why bother with asteroseismology while studying exoplanets? There are several answers to this question. Asteroseismology and exoplanetary sciences have much in common and the synergy between the two opens up new aspects in both fields.

Observations of Exoplanet Atmospheres
, 2015 Detailed characterization of an extrasolar planet's atmosphere provides the best hope for distinguishing the makeup of its outer layers, and the only hope for understanding the interplay between initial composition, chemistry, dynamics & circulation, and

Revealing Stellar Surface Structure Behind Transiting Exoplanets
, 2018 During exoplanet transits, successive stellar surface portions become hidden and differential spectroscopy between various transit phases provide spectra of small surface segments temporarily hidden behind the planet. Line profile changes across the stellar disk offer diagnostics for hydrodynamic modeling, while exoplanet analyses require stellar ...

Observations of Mass Loss from the Transiting Exoplanet HD 209458b
, 2010 Using the new Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) on the {\it Hubble Space Telescope (HST)}, we obtained moderate-resolution, high signal/noise ultraviolet spectra of HD 209458 and its exoplanet HD 209458b during transit, both orbital quadratures, and ...

Evolution of Steam Worlds: Energetic Aspects
The Astrophysical JournalSub-Neptunes occupy an intriguing region of planetary mass–radius space, where theoretical models of interior structure predict that they could be water-rich, where water is in steam and supercritical state.
