Detection of a Westward Hotspot Offset in the Atmosphere of a Hot Gas Giant CoRoT-2b
Lisa Dang, Nicolas B. Cowan, Joel C. Schwartz +9
Short-period planets exhibit day-night temperature contrasts of hundreds to thousands of degrees K. They also exhibit eastward hotspot offsets whereby the hottest region on the pla…
The Very Low Albedo of WASP-12b From Spectral Eclipse Observations with
Taylor J. Bell, Nikolay Nikolov, Nicolas B. Cowan +11
We present an optical eclipse observation of the hot Jupiter WASP-12b using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. These spectra allow us to…
Phase Offsets and the Energy Budgets of Hot Jupiters
Joel C. Schwartz, Zane Kashner, Diana Jovmir +1
Thermal phase curves of short-period planets on circular orbits provide joint constraints on the fraction of incoming energy that is reflected (Bond albedo) and the fraction of abs…
Balancing the Energy Budget of Short-Period Giant Planets: Evidence for Reflective Clouds and Optical Absorbers
Joel C. Schwartz, Nicolas B. Cowan
We consider fifty transiting short-period giant planets for which eclipse depths have been measured at multiple infrared wavelengths. The aggregate dayside emission spectrum of the…
