Giant Planet Atmospheres and Spectra
Adam Burrows, Glenn Orton
Direct measurements of the spectra of extrasolar giant planets are the keys to determining their physical and chemical nature. The goal of theory is to provide the tools and contex…
The Role of Dust Clouds in the Atmospheres of Brown Dwarfs
Adam Burrows
The new spectroscopic classes, L and T, are defined by the role of dust clouds in their atmospheres, the former by their presence and the latter by their removal and near absence.…
Coupled Evolution with Tides of the Radius and Orbit of Transiting Giant Planets: General Results
Laurent Ibgui, Adam Burrows
Some transiting extrasolar giant planets have measured radii larger than predicted by the standard theory. In this paper, we explore the possibility that an earlier episode of tida…
Can TiO Explain Thermal Inversions in the Upper Atmospheres of Irradiated Giant Planets?
David S. Spiegel, Katie Silverio, Adam Burrows
Spitzer Space Telescope infrared observations indicate that several transiting extrasolar giant planets have thermal inversions in their upper atmospheres. Above a relative minimum…
Strong Water Absorption in the Dayside Emission Spectrum of the Planet HD 189733b
Carl J. Grillmair, Adam Burrows, David Charbonneau +6
Recent observations of the extrasolar planet HD 189733b did not reveal the presence of water in the emission spectrum of the planet. Yet models of such 'Hot Jupiter' planets predic…
