Re-evaluating hot Jupiter WASP-12b: An update

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The hot Jupiter WASP-12b is one of the largest, hottest, and best-studied extrasolar planets. We revisit our recent analysis of WASP-12b's emission spectrum in light of near-infrared spectroscopic measurements which have been claimed to support either a ...

THERMAL PROCESSES GOVERNING HOT-JUPITER RADII [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2013
There have been many proposed explanations for the larger-than-expected radii of some transiting hot Jupiters, including either stellar or orbital energy deposition deep in the atmosphere or deep in the interior. In this paper, we explore the important influences on hot-Jupiter radius evolution of (i) additional heat sources in the high atmosphere, the

Multi-Component MHD Model of Hot Jupiter Envelopes

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
A numerical model description of a hot Jupiter extended envelope based on the approximation of multi-component magnetic hydrodynamics is presented. The main attention is focused on the problem of implementing the completed MHD stellar wind model.

Inflation of migrated hot Jupiters

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT The observed low densities of gas giant planets with a high equilibrium temperature (hot Jupiters) can be simulated in models when a fraction of the surface radiation is deposited deeper in the interior. Meanwhile, migration theories suggest that hot Jupiters formed further away from their host star and migrated inward.

Jupiter Atmospheric Models and Outer Boundary Conditions for Giant Planet Evolutionary Calculations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present updated atmospheric tables suitable for calculating the post-formation evolution and cooling of Jupiter and Jupiter-like exoplanets. These tables are generated using a 1D radiative transfer modeling code that incorporates the latest opacities ...

Hot-Jupiters and hot-Neptunes: A common origin? [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2005
We compare evolutionary models for close-in exoplanets coupling irradiation and evaporation due respectively to the thermal and high energy flux of the parent star with observations of recently discovered new transiting planets. The models provide an overall good agreement with observations, although at the very limit of the quoted error bars of OGLE ...

WASP-43b: The closest-orbiting hot Jupiter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report the discovery of WASP-43b, a hot Jupiter transiting a K7V star every 0.81 d. At 0.6-Msun the host star has the lowest mass of any star hosting a hot Jupiter. It also shows a 15.6-d rotation period. The planet has a mass of 1.8 Mjup, a radius of
