Separating Super-puffs versus Hot Jupiters among Young Puffy Planets
Discoveries of close-in young puffy ( R _p ≳ 6 R _⊕ ) planets raise the question of whether they are bona fide hot Jupiters or puffed-up Neptunes, potentially placing constraints on the formation location and timescale of hot Jupiters.

Magnetohydrodynamical Torsional Oscillations from Thermoresistive Instability in Hot Jupiters
Hot Jupiter atmospheres may be subject to a thermoresistive instability where an increase in the electrical conductivity due to ohmic heating results in runaway of the atmospheric temperature.

A significant fraction of hot Jupiters have orbital axes misaligned with their host stars’ spin axes. The large stellar obliquities of these giants have long been considered potential signatures of high-eccentricity migration, which is expected to clear ...

Atmospheric Circulation of Hot Jupiters: Dayside–Nightside Temperature Differences. II. Comparison with Observations [PDF]
The full-phase infrared light curves of low-eccentricity hot Jupiters show a trend of increasing fractional dayside–nightside brightness temperature difference with increasing incident stellar flux, both averaged across the infrared and in each ...

THE IMPRINT OF EXOPLANET FORMATION HISTORY ON OBSERVABLE PRESENT-DAY SPECTRA OF HOT JUPITERS [PDF]
The composition of a planet’s atmosphere is determined by its formation, evolution, and present-day insolation. A planet’s spectrum therefore may hold clues on its origins.

Flexible Polyurethane Foams Reinforced With Recycled Waste Tire Material
Ground tire rubber powder obtained through water jet pulverization mixed with PU foam possesses tunable mechanical and acoustic properties suitable for automotive, construction, and aerospace applications. ABSTRACT We explore the use of ground tire rubber (GTR) powder obtained through water jet pulverization (WJP), referred to as WJP‐GTR, and reveal ...

Spin and Obliquity Evolution of Hot Jupiter Hosts from Resonance Locks
When a hot Jupiter orbits a star whose effective temperature exceeds ∼6100 K, its orbit normal tends to be misaligned with the stellar spin axis. Cooler stars typically have smaller obliquities, which may have been damped by hot Jupiters in resonance ...

Structure and Evolution of Internally Heated Hot Jupiters
Hot Jupiters receive strong stellar irradiation, producing equilibrium temperatures of $1000 - 2500 \ \mathrm{Kelvin}$. Incoming irradiation directly heats just their thin outer layer, down to pressures of $\sim 0.1 \ \mathrm{bars}$.
