WARM JUPITERS ARE LESS LONELY THAN HOT JUPITERS: CLOSE NEIGHBORS [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2016
Exploiting the Kepler transit data, we uncover a dramatic distinction in the prevalence of sub-Jovian companions between systems that contain hot Jupiters (HJs) (periods inward of 10 days) and those that host warm Jupiters (WJs) (periods between 10 and ...

DYNAMICAL INTERACTIONS MAKE HOT JUPITERS IN OPEN STAR CLUSTERS

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2016
Explaining the origin and evolution of exoplanetary hot Jupiters remains a significant challenge. One possible mechanism for the production of hot Jupiters is planet-planet interactions, which produce them from planets born far from their host stars but ...

The Effect of Interior Heat Flux on the Atmospheric Circulation of Hot and Ultra-hot Jupiters

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
Many hot and ultra-hot Jupiters have inflated radii, implying that their interiors retain significant entropy from formation. These hot interiors lead to an enhanced internal heat flux that impinges upon the atmosphere from below.

Are hot Neptunes partially evaporated hot Jupiters?

open access: yes, 2011
The detection of short period planets (hot Jupiters and their lower mass counterparts, hot Neptunes and super-Earths) still defies the models of planet formation and evolution. Several possibilities have been proposed to explain the nature and formation process of the lower mass population, including in situ formation, disk migration, planet-planet ...

Hot Shadows of Jupiter

Science, 1965
On the evenings of 26 October and 15 December 1962, while the disk of Jupiter was being scanned for thermal emission in the 8- to 14-micron wavelength region, a large enhancement was discovered in the emission from shadows cast on Jupiter by the Jovian satellites Ganymede and Europa.

THE PHOTOECCENTRIC EFFECT AND PROTO-HOT JUPITERS. III. A PAUCITY OF PROTO-HOT JUPITERS ON SUPER-ECCENTRIC ORBITS [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2015
Gas giant planets orbiting within 0.1 AU of their host stars are unlikely to have formed in situ and are evidence for planetary migration. It is debated whether the typical hot Jupiter smoothly migrated inward from its formation location through the ...

Gas envelopes of exoplanets—hot Jupiters

Uspekhi Fizicheskih Nauk, 2020
Abstract We consider the physical characteristics and dynamics of the gaseous envelopes of hot Jupiters (HJs) — gas giants with a mass comparable to Jupiter’s and a semi-major axis of less than 0.1 a.u. Although HJs were discovered almost a quarter of a century ago, many issues about their origin remain open. There are two reasons for
