Hot Jupiter secondary eclipses measured by Kepler
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011 Hot-Jupiters are known to be dark in visible bandpasses, mainly because of the alkali metal absorption features. The outstanding quality of the Kepler mission photometry allows a detection (or non-detection upper limits on) giant planet secondary ...

ATMOSPHERIC SULFUR PHOTOCHEMISTRY ON HOT JUPITERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 We develop a new 1D photochemical kinetics code to address stratospheric chemistry and stratospheric heating in hot Jupiters. Here we address optically active S-containing species and CO2 at 1200 < T < 2000 K. HS (mercapto) and S2 are highly reactive species that are generated photochemically and thermochemically from H2S with peak abundances ...

Formation of Ultra-short-period Planets in Hot Jupiter Systems: Application to WASP-47
The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe WASP-47 system is notable as the first known system hosting both inner and outer low-mass planetary companions around a hot Jupiter, with an ultra-short-period (USP) planet as the innermost planetary companion.

Two Novel Hot Jupiter Formation Pathways: How White Dwarf Kicks Shape the Hot Jupiter Population
The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe origin of Hot Jupiters (HJs) is disputed between a variety of in situ and ex situ formation scenarios. One of the early proposed ex situ scenarios was the Eccentric Kozai–Lidov (EKL) mechanism combined with tidal circularization, which can produce ...

Mechanisms affecting the composition of Hot Jupiters atmospheres
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013 Opacities and thus local chemical composition play a key role when characterizing exoplanet atmospheres from observations. When the gas is in chemical equilibrium the chemical abundances depend strongly on the temperature profile.

Tidal oscillations of rotating hot Jupiters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT We calculate small amplitude gravitational and thermal tides of uniformly rotating hot Jupiters composed of a nearly isentropic convective core and a geometrically thin radiative envelope. We treat the fluid in the convective core as a viscous fluid and solve linearized Navier–Stokes equations to obtain tidal responses of the ...

OHMIC DISSIPATION IN THE ATMOSPHERES OF HOT JUPITERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2010 Hot Jupiter atmospheres exhibit fast, weakly-ionized winds. The interaction of these winds with the planetary magnetic field generates drag on the winds and leads to ohmic dissipation of the induced electric currents. We study the magnitude of ohmic dissipation in representative, three-dimensional atmospheric circulation models of the hot Jupiter HD ...
