On the Inference of Thermal Inversions in Hot Jupiter Atmospheres

Several studies in the recent past have inferred the existence of thermal inversions in some transiting hot Jupiter atmospheres. Given the limited data available, the inference of a thermal inversion depends critically on the chemical composition assumed for the atmosphere. In this study, we explore the degeneracies between thermal inversions and molecular abundances in four highly irradiated h...

Hot Jupiter Variability in Eclipse Depth

Physical conditions in the atmospheres of tidally locked, slowly rotating hot Jupiters correspond to dynamical circulation regimes with Rhines scales and Rossby deformation radii comparable to the planetary radii. Consequently, the large spatial scales of moving atmospheric structures could generate significant photospheric variability. Here, we estimate the level of thermal infrared variabilit...

Dynamics and Disequilibrium Carbon Chemistry in Hot Jupiter Atmospheres, with Application to Hd 209458b

Chemical equilibrium considerations suggest that, assuming solar elemental abundances, carbon on HD 209458b is sequestered primarily as carbon monoxide (CO) and methane (CH4). The relative mole fractions of CO(g) and CH4(g) in chemical equilibrium are expected to vary greatly according to variations in local temperature and pressure. We show, however, that in the p = 1–1000 mbar range, chemical...

Jupiter ' s Hot , Mushy

Jupiter's moon Io is the most volcanically active body in the Solar System. Observations by instruments on the Galileo spacecraft and on telescopes atop Maunakea in Hawai'i indicate that lava flows on Io are surprisingly hot, over 1200 oC and possibly as much as 1300 oC; a few areas might have lava flows as hot as 1500 oC. Such high temperatures imply that the lava flows are composed of rock th...

The atmospheres of Mars, Venus and Jupiter.

The general properties of the atmospheres of Mars, Venus and Jupiter are reviewed. The evolutionary processes of planetary atmospheres are outlined as an introduction to a detailed discussion of the structure of the atmospheres of other planets. The most recent observational results indicate that the surface pressure on Mars could be as low as 20 mb, and the amount of CO2 may have a mixing rati...
