Inhomogeneous Cloud Coverage and Altitude-Dependent Heat Transport on the Hot-Jupiter NGTS-10 Ab from its Optical-to-Infrared Phase Curve

Louis-Philippe Coulombe, Vivien Parmentier, Kevin B. Stevenson +15

Hot-Jupiters, gas giant planets with equilibrium temperatures above 1,000 K, host large temperature gradients between their permanent day- and nightsides, resulting in circulation…

A Physically Driven Parameterisation of Multidimensional Atmospheres: Application to the JWST Phase Curve of WASP-121b

Yuanheng Yang, Guo Chen, Xianyu Tan +6

Understanding the multidimensional structure of strongly irradiated exoplanets is essential for interpreting their atmospheric dynamics, chemistry and energy transport, yet current…

Horizontal transport as a source of disequilibrium chemistry on the nightside of a hot exoplanet

Vivien Parmentier, Kevin B. Stevenson, Luis Welbanks +15

Hot Jupiters have temperature gradients of several hundreds of degrees between their permanent day and nightsides. In equilibrium, the primary carbon reservoir is expected to trans…

The Days Drag On on WASP-121 b: Interpreting its NIRISS Spectroscopic Phase Curve with General Circulation Models

Robert C. Frazier, Emily Rauscher, Jared Splinter +18

Ultra-hot Jupiters present extreme atmospheric phenomena not found in the Solar System. These planets' daysides experience strong temperature inversions, molecular species (includi…

The tale of the 3 planets: 3D cloud feedback enhances the spectral diversity of warm Jupiters

Nishil Mehta, Vivien Parmentier, Xianyu Tan +14

JWST has shown a large diversity in warm Jupiter spectra, despite only small variations in the planetary parameters. However, the main driver of this diversity remains unclear. We…

Three-Dimensional Ocean Dynamics and Detectability of Tidally Locked Lava Worlds

Yanhong Lai, Wanying Kang, Jun Yang +1

Tidally locked lava planets are hot, rocky worlds on close-in orbits with a permanent molten dayside. With JWST, their surfaces and atmospheres are beginning to be revealed. This w…

Asymmetry and Dynamical Constraints in 2-Limbs Retrieval of WASP-39 b Inferring from JWST Data

Zixin Chen, Jianghui Ji, Guo Chen +2

Transmission spectroscopy has provided unprecedented insight into the makeup of exoplanet atmospheres. A transmission spectrum contains contributions from a planet's morning and ev…

Evidence for Nightside Water Emission Found in Transit of Ultrahot Jupiter WASP-33b

Yuanheng Yang, Guo Chen, Fei Yan +2

To date, the dayside thermal structure of ultrahot Jupiters (UHJs) is generally considered to be inverted, but their nightside thermal structure has been less explored. Here we exp…

Early Release Science of the Exoplanet WASP-39b with JWST NIRSpec G395H

Lili Alderson, Hannah R. Wakeford, Munazza K. Alam +89

Measuring the abundances of carbon and oxygen in exoplanet atmospheres is considered a crucial avenue for unlocking the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems. Access to a…
