The recent inference of sulphur dioxide (SO) in the atmosphere of the hot (1100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations suggests that phot…
Two-Dimensional Models of Microphysical Clouds on Hot Jupiters I: Cloud Properties
Diana Powell, Xi Zhang
We present a new two-dimensional, bin-scheme microphysical model of cloud formation in the atmospheres of hot Jupiters that includes the effects of longitudinal gas and cloud trans…
