Hot Jupiters Are Asynchronous Rotators [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal LettersHot Jupiters are typically assumed to be synchronously rotating, from tidal locking. Their thermally driven atmospheric winds experience Lorentz drag on the planetary magnetic field anchored at depth.

TESS Giants Transiting Giants. VI. Newly Discovered Hot Jupiters Provide Evidence for Efficient Obliquity Damping after the Main Sequence [PDF]
The Astronomical JournalThe degree of alignment between a star’s spin axis and the orbital plane of its planets (the stellar obliquity) is related to interesting and poorly understood processes that occur during planet formation and evolution.

Evidence for Primordial Alignment II: Insights from Stellar Obliquity Measurements for Hot Jupiters in Compact Multiplanet Systems [PDF]
The Astronomical JournalA 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 ...

The Occurrence Rate of Nearby Planetary Companions to Hot Jupiters
The Astronomical JournalOf the >500 confirmed transiting hot Jupiters and ≈2000 additional candidates today, only 10 are known to have nearby companion planets. The survival of nearby companions means that these hot Jupiters cannot have migrated to their present location via ...

Evaporation of hot jupiters and hot neptunes [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011 Among the nearly five hundred extra-solar planets known, almost 30% orbit closer than 0.1 AU from their parent star. We will review the observations and the corresponding models of the evaporation of these ‘hot jupiters’.

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.

TESS giants transiting giants V - Two hot Jupiters orbiting red-giant hosts [PDF]
, 2023 : In this work we present the discovery and confirmation of two hot Jupiters orbiting red-giant stars, TOI-4377 b and TOI-4551 b, observed by TESS in the southern ecliptic hemisphere and later followed-up with radial-velocity (RV ...
