A Precise Estimate of the Radius of the Exoplanet HD 149026b from Spitzer Photometry
Philip Nutzman, David Charbonneau, Joshua N. Winn +4
We present Spitzer 8 micron transit observations of the extrasolar planet HD 149026b. At this wavelength, transit light curves are weakly affected by stellar limb-darkening, allowi…
Atmospheric Circulation of Hot Jupiters: Three-dimensional circulation models of HD 209458b and HD 189733b with Simplified Forcing
Adam P. Showman, Curtis S. Cooper, Jonathan J. Fortney +1
We present global, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the atmospheric circulation on HD 209458b and HD 189733b and calculate the infrared spectra and light curves predicted…
Multi-Wavelength Constraints on the Day-Night Circulation Patterns of HD 189733b
Heather A. Knutson, David Charbonneau, Nicolas B. Cowan +6
We present new Spitzer observations of the phase variation of the hot Jupiter HD 189733b in the MIPS 24 micron bandpass, spanning the same part of the planet's orbit as our previou…
On the Luminosity of Young Jupiters
M. S. Marley, J. J. Fortney, O. Hubickyj +2
Traditional thermal evolution models of giant planets employ arbitrary initial conditions selected more for computational expediency than physical accuracy. Since the initial condi…
