Exoplanetary science is on the verge of an unprecedented revolution. The thousands of
exoplanets discovered over the past decade have most recently been supplemented by …

We provide a brief review of many aspects of the planetary physics of hot Jupiters. Our aim is
to cover most of the major areas of current study while providing the reader with additional …

Hot Jupiters have been predicted to have a strong day/night temperature contrast and a
hotspot shifted eastward of the substellar point. This was confirmed by numerous phase …

Observations of exoplanet atmospheres have shown that aerosols, like in the solar system,
are common across a variety of temperatures and planet types. The formation and …

Recent observations of ultra-hot Jupiters with dayside temperatures in excess of 2500 K
have found evidence for new physical processes at play in their atmospheres. In this work …

Transport-induced quenching, ie the homogenization of chemical abundances by
atmospheric advection, is thought to occur in the atmospheres of hot gas giant exoplanets …

Abstract The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) presents the opportunity to transform
our understanding of planets and the origins of life by revealing the atmospheric …

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

Clouds are prevalent in many of the exoplanet atmospheres that have been observed to
date. For transiting exoplanets, we know if clouds are present because they mute spectral …

Using a general circulation model (GCM), we investigate trends in simulated hot Jupiter
atmospheres for a range of irradiation temperatures (1500–4000 K), surface gravities (10 …
