Pseudo-2D Modelling of Heat Redistribution Through H${}_2$ Thermal Dissociation/Recombination: Consequences for Ultra-Hot Jupiters

Alexander Roth, Benjamin Drummond, Eric Hébrard +3

Thermal dissociation and recombination of molecular hydrogen, H_2, in the atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) has been shown to play an important role in global heat redistrib…
