Observational Consequences of Shallow-water Magnetohydrodynamics on Hot Jupiters
A. W. Hindle, P. J. Bushby, T. M. Rogers
We use results of shallow-water magnetohydrodynamics (SWMHD) to place estimates on the minimum magnetic field strengths required to cause atmospheric wind variations (and therefore…
The Magnetic Mechanism for Hotspot Reversals in Hot Jupiter Atmospheres
A. W. Hindle, P. J. Bushby, T. M. Rogers
Magnetically-driven hotspot variations (which are tied to atmospheric wind variations) in hot Jupiters are studied using non-linear numerical simulations of a shallow-water magneto…
Shallow-water Magnetohydrodynamics for Westward Hotspots on Hot Jupiters
A. W. Hindle, P. J. Bushby, T. M. Rogers
Westward winds have now been inferred for two hot Jupiters (HJs): HAT-P-7b and CoRoT-2b. Such observations could be the result of a number of physical phenomena such as cloud asymm…
