Kepler constraints on planets near hot Jupiters. [PDF]

open access: yesProc 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.

Hot Stars with Hot Jupiters Have High Obliquities [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
We show that stars with transiting planets for which the stellar obliquity is large are preferentially hot (T_eff > 6250 K). This could explain why small obliquities were observed in the earliest measurements, which focused on relatively cool stars drawn

Origins of Hot Jupiters [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2018
Hot Jupiters were the first exoplanets to be discovered around main sequence stars and astonished us with their close-in orbits. They are a prime example of how exoplanets have challenged our textbook, solar-system inspired story of how planetary systems form and evolve.

Warm Jupiters are less lonely than hot Jupiters: close neighbours [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical 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 (periods inward of 10 days) and those that host warm Jupiters (periods between 10 and 200 days ...

Hot Jupiters and Cool Stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
Close-in planets are in jeopardy as their host stars evolve off the main sequence to the subgiant and red giant phases. In this paper, we explore the influences of the stellar mass (in the range 1.5--2\Mso ), mass-loss prescription, planet mass (from ...

Evolution of Ohmically Heated Hot Jupiters [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We present calculations of thermal evolution of Hot Jupiters with various masses and effective temperatures under Ohmic dissipation. The resulting evolutionary sequences show a clear tendency towards inflated radii for effective temperatures that give ...

Atmospheric Sulfur Photochemistry on Hot Jupiters [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
We develop a new 1D photochemical kinetics code to address stratospheric chemistry and stratospheric heating in hot Jupiters. Here we address optically active S-containing species and CO2 at 1200 < T < 2000 K.

Circulation and Dissipation on Hot Jupiters [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
Many global circulation models predict supersonic zonal winds and large vertical shears in the atmospheres of short-period jovian exoplanets. Using linear analysis and nonlinear local simulations, we investigate hydrodynamic dissipation mechanisms to ...

Evaporation of hot jupiters and hot neptunes [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ 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’.
