1 Adam Jermyn - Tidal Heating of Hot Jupiters
1 Adam Jermyn Tidal Heating of Hot Jupiters Thousands of exoplanets have been discovered in recent years, and many of them bear little resemblance to planets in our own system. Probably the most strikingly different are socalled hot Jupiters, which are Jupiter-mass planets orbiting very close to the host star, such that radiation from the star heats the tops of their atmospheres. Some of the ho...
متن کاملTwo Classes of Hot Jupiters
We identify two classes of transiting planet, based on their equilibrium temperatures and Safronov numbers. We examine various possible explanations for the dichotomy. It may reflect the influence of planet or planetesimal scattering in determining when planetary migration stops. Another possibility is that some planets lose more mass to evaporation than others. If this evaporation process pref...
متن کاملHot Jupiters: Lands of Plenty
In late August 2005, 80 researchers from more than 15 countries convened for a 4-day conference entitled “The Tenth Anniversary of 51 Peg b: Status and Prospects for Hot Jupiter Studies”. The meeting was held at l’Observatoire de Haute-Provence, the location of the 1.93-m telescope and ELODIE spectrograph used to discover the planetary companion to 51 Peg roughly 10 years ago. I summarize sever...
متن کاملAtmospheric escape from hot Jupiters
The extra-solar planet HD209458b has been found to have an extended atmosphere of escaping atomic hydrogen (Vidal-Madjar et al. 2003), suggesting that “hot Jupiters” closer to their parent stars could evaporate. Here we estimate the atmospheric escape (so called evaporation rate) from hot Jupiters and their corresponding life time against evaporation. The calculated evaporation rate of HD209458...
متن کاملGlobal Compton Heating and Cooling in Hot Accretion Flows
The hot accretion flow (such as advection-dominated accretion flow) is usually optically thin in the radial direction, therefore the photons produced at one radius can travel for a long distance without being absorbed and heat or cool electrons at other radii via Compton scattering. This effect has been ignored in most previous works on hot accretion flows and is the focus of this paper. If the...
