Evidence for Hidden Nearby Companions to Hot Jupiters
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The first discovered extrasolar worlds—giant, “hot Jupiter” planets on short-period orbits—came as a surprise to solar system–centric models of planet formation, prompting the development of new theories for planetary system evolution.

Kepler constraints on planets near hot Jupiters. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2012 We present the results of a search for planetary companions orbiting near hot Jupiter planet candidates (Jupiter-size candidates with orbital periods near 3 d) identified in the Kepler data through its sixth quarter of science operations.

EVIDENCE FOR THE TIDAL DESTRUCTION OF HOT JUPITERS BY SUBGIANT STARS [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2013 Tidal transfer of angular momentum is expected to cause hot Jupiters to spiral into their host stars. Although the timescale for orbital decay is very uncertain, it should be faster for systems with larger and more evolved stars.

Hot Jupiters from Disruption of Resonant Chains in Postdisk Evolution
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The formation of hot Jupiters has been a subject of interest in the field of exoplanet science. According to conventional scenarios, these gas giants are believed to form beyond the snow line and subsequently migrate inward.

Statistical Analysis of the Dearth of Super-eccentric Jupiters in the Kepler Sample
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Hot Jupiters may have formed in situ, or been delivered to their observed short periods through one of two categories of migration mechanisms: disk migration or high-eccentricity migration.

Atmospheric circulation of exoplanets
地球与行星物理论评, 2023 To date, more than 5000 exoplanets and more than 2000 brown dwarfs have been confirmed, which shows rich diversities in many aspects. With the rapid growth of the planet family, both observational and theoretical research on exoplanet atmosphere is ...

Warm Jupiters are less lonely than hot Jupiters: close neighbours [PDF]
, 2016 Exploiting the Kepler transit data, we uncover a dramatic distinction in the prevalence of sub-Jovian companions, between systems that contain hot Jupiters (periods inward of 10 days) and those that host warm Jupiters (periods between 10 and 200 days ...
