The panchromatic JWST dayside spectrum of WASP-121 b reveals a refractory-rich formation
K. Angelique Kahle, Paul Mollière, Laura Kreidberg +16
One path to understand how planets form is to link their present-day atmospheric composition to predictions from planet formation models. For the hottest planets, the abundances of…

Inhomogeneous magnetic coupling in exoplanets: the stop & go of WASP-18 b's atmospheric flows
Aljona Blöcker, Ludmila Carone, Christiane Helling
Early studies of ionization in hot Jupiter atmospheres suggest that magnetic coupling can shape their dynamics. These effects may be most pronounced in ultra-hot Jupiters that sust…
