Irradiated Atmospheres I: Heating by Vertical-Mixing Induced Energy Transport
Wei Zhong, Zhen-Tai Zhang, Hui-Sheng Zhong +3
Observations have revealed unique temperature profiles in hot Jupiter atmospheres. We propose that the energy transport by vertical mixing could lead to such thermal features. In o…
Latitude-dependent Atmospheric Waves and Long-period Modulations in Luhman 16 B from the Longest Lightcurve of an Extrasolar World
Nguyen Fuda, Dániel Apai, Domenico Nardiello +3
In this work, we present the longest photometric monitoring of up to 1200 hours of the strongly variable brown-dwarf binaries Luhman 16 AB and provide evidence of 5% variabili…
Modeling the day-night temperature variations of ultra-hot Jupiters: confronting non-grey general circulation models and observations
Xianyu Tan, Thaddeus D. Komacek, Natasha E. Batalha +4
Ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) are natural laboratories to study extreme physics in planetary atmospheres and their rich observational data sets are yet to be confronted with models wit…
