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 …

Planets intermediate in size between the Earth and Neptune, and orbiting closer to their host
stars than Mercury does the Sun, are the most common type of planet revealed by exoplanet …

The Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b has been the subject of extensive efforts to
determine its atmospheric properties using transmission spectroscopy,,–. However, these …

Measurements of the atmospheric carbon (C) and oxygen (O) relative to hydrogen (H) in hot
Jupiters (relative to their host stars) provide insight into their formation location and …

We present a new generation of substellar atmosphere and evolution models, appropriate
for application to studies of L-, T-, and Y-type brown dwarfs and self-luminous extrasolar …

Constraining planet formation based on the atmospheric composition of exoplanets is a
fundamental goal of the exoplanet community. Existing studies commonly try to constrain …

Recent surveys have revealed that planets intermediate in size between Earth and Neptune
('super-Earths') are among the most common planets in the Galaxy,,. Atmospheric studies …

We explore how well spectra from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will likely
constrain bulk atmospheric properties of transiting exoplanets. We start by modeling the …

We present here the analysis of 30 gaseous extrasolar planets, with temperatures between
600 and 2400 K and radii between 0.35 and 1.9 R Jup. The quality of the HST/WFC3 …

Transiting planet surveys like Kepler have provided a wealth of information on the
distribution of planetary radii, particularly for the new populations of super-Earth-and sub …
