Groundbased and spacecraft telescopic observations, combined with an intensive modeling
effort, have greatly enhanced our understanding of hot giant planets and brown dwarfs over …

The nature and structure of the observed east-west flows on Jupiter and Saturn have been a
long-standing mystery in planetary science. This mystery has been recently unraveled by the …

Context. WASP-121 b is a hot Jupiter that was recently found to possess rich emission (day
side) and transmission (limb) spectra, suggestive of the presence of a multitude of chemical …

The atmospheres of ultra-hot Jupiters have been characterized in detail through recent
phase curve and low-and high-resolution emission and transmission spectroscopic …

A planetary atmosphere is the outer gas layer of a planet. Besides its scientific significance
among the first and most accessible planetary layers observed from space, it is closely …

Ultra-hot Jupiters are gas giants planets whose dayside temperature is greater than 2200 K
as a consequence of the strong irradiation received from the host star. These kinds of …

We present an improved, hybrid CPU-GPU atmospheric retrieval code, Helios-r2, which is
applicable to medium-resolution emission spectra of brown dwarfs, in preparation for …

The photometric and spectral variability of brown dwarfs probes heterogeneous temperature
and cloud distributions and traces the atmospheric circulation patterns. We present a new 42 …

Brown dwarfs, planetary-mass objects and directly imaged giant planets exhibit significant
observational evidence for active atmospheric circulation, raising critical questions about …

Context. The anomalously large radii of hot Jupiters has long been a mystery. However, by
combining both theoretical arguments and 2D models, a recent study has suggested that the …
