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 …

Ground-based high-resolution spectroscopy (HRS) has detected numerous chemical
species and atmospheric dynamics in exoplanets, most notably ultrahot Jupiters (UHJs) …

Context. KELT-9 b exemplifies a newly emerging class of short-period gaseous exoplanets
that tend to orbit hot, early type stars–termed ultra-hot Jupiters. The severe stellar irradiation …

We present thermal phase curve measurements for the hot Jupiter WASP-103b observed
with Hubble/WFC3 and Spitzer/IRAC. The phase curves have large amplitudes and …

The temperature of an atmosphere decreases with increasing altitude, unless a shortwave
absorber that causes a temperature inversion exists. Ozone plays this role in the Earth's …

Exoplanetary transmission spectroscopy in the near-infrared using the Hubble Space
Telescope (HST) NICMOS is currently ambiguous because different observational groups …

Over a large range of equilibrium temperatures, clouds shape the transmission spectrum of
hot Jupiter atmospheres, yet their composition remains unknown. Recent observations show …

We present three transit observations of HD 189733 b obtained with the high-resolution
spectrograph CARMENES at Calar Alto. A strong absorption signal is detected in the near …

Over the past decade, observations of giant exoplanets (Jupiter-size) have provided key
insights into their atmospheres,, but the properties of lower-mass exoplanets (sub-Neptune) …
