High-eccentricity Migration with Disk-induced Spin–Orbit Misalignment: A Preference for Perpendicular Hot Jupiters [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022 High-eccentricity migration is a likely formation mechanism for many observed hot Jupiters, particularly those with a large misalignment between the stellar spin axis and orbital angular momentum axis of the planet.

Evidence for the Late Arrival of Hot Jupiters in Systems with High Host-star Obliquities [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2022 It has been shown that hot Jupiters systems with massive, hot stellar primaries exhibit a wide range of stellar obliquities. On the other hand, hot Jupiter systems with low-mass, cool primaries often have stellar obliquities close to zero.

H2S and SO2 detectability in hot Jupiters. Sulphur species as indicators of metallicity and C/O ratio [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022 The high cosmic abundance and the intermediate volatility and chemical properties of sulfur allow the use of sulfur-bearing species as a tracer of the chemical processes in the atmospheres of hot Jupiter exoplanets.

The Effect of Interior Heat Flux on the Atmospheric Circulation of Hot and Ultra-hot Jupiters [PDF]
Astrophysical 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.

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.

A Universal Cloud Composition on the Nightsides of Hot Jupiters [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021 The day and nightside temperatures of hot Jupiters are diagnostics of heat transport processes in their atmospheres. Recent observations have shown that the nightsides of hot Jupiters are a nearly constant 1100 K for a wide range of equilibrium ...
