The effect of interior heat flux on the atmospheric circulation of hot and ultra-hot Jupiters

Thaddeus D. Komacek, Peter Gao, Daniel P. Thorngren +2

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…
