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.

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.

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 ...

Inflation of migrated hot Jupiters
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT The observed low densities of gas giant planets with a high equilibrium temperature (hot Jupiters) can be simulated in models when a fraction of the surface radiation is deposited deeper in the interior. Meanwhile, migration theories suggest that hot Jupiters formed further away from their host star and migrated inward.
