ATMOSPHERIC HEAT REDISTRIBUTION ON HOT JUPITERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 Infrared lightcurves of transiting hot Jupiters present a trend in which the atmospheres of the hottest planets are less efficient at redistributing the stellar energy absorbed on their daysides---and thus have a larger day-night temperature contrast---than colder planets.

Investigating the Origins of Hot Neptunes from Radial Velocity Data
The Astronomical JournalHot Neptunes are extrasolar planets that are similar in size to Neptune in our solar system but are much closer to their host stars, completing an orbit in 10 days or less. The origin of hot Neptunes is not fully understood.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Due to their likely tidally synchronized nature, (ultra)hot Jupiter atmospheres should experience strongly spatially heterogeneous instellation. The large irradiation contrast and resulting atmospheric circulation induce temperature and chemical ...

ACCRETION OF ROCKY PLANETS BY HOT JUPITERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 The observed population of Hot Jupiters displays a stunning variety of physical properties, including a wide range of densities and core sizes for a given planetary mass. Motivated by the observational sample, this paper studies the accretion of rocky planets by Hot Jupiters, after the Jovian planets have finished their principal migration epoch and ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Photochemical hazes are expected to form in hot Jupiter atmospheres and may explain the strong scattering slopes and muted spectral features observed in the transmission spectra of many hot Jupiters.

Testing Approximate Infrared Scattering Radiative-transfer Methods for Hot Jupiter Atmospheres
The Astrophysical JournalThe calculation of internal atmospheric (longwave) fluxes is a key component of any model of exoplanet atmospheres that requires radiative-transfer (RT) calculations.

The Astronomical JournalHigh-resolution cross-correlation spectroscopy is a technique for detecting the atmospheres of close-in planets using the change in the projected planet velocity over a few hours. To date, this technique has most often been applied to hot Jupiters, which
