Atmospheric 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 کاملSecular chaos and its application to Mercury, hot Jupiters, and the organization of planetary systems.
In the inner solar system, the planets' orbits evolve chaotically, driven primarily by secular chaos. Mercury has a particularly chaotic orbit and is in danger of being lost within a few billion years. Just as secular chaos is reorganizing the solar system today, so it has likely helped organize it in the past. We suggest that extrasolar planetary systems are also organized to a large extent by...
متن کاملInfrared Radiation from Hot Jupiters
Recent Spitzer infrared (IR) observations of two transiting hot Jupiters during their secondary eclipses have provided the first direct detection of planets orbiting other stars (Charbonneau et al. 2005; Deming et al. 2005). We here elaborate on some aspects of our detection of HD209458b at 24 μm, and we compare to the detection of TrES-1 by Charbonneau et al. Spitzer will eventually determine ...
متن کاملSecular Dynamics of Three-Body Systems and the Origins of Retrograde Hot Jupiters
We consider the secular-perturbation expansion of the classical Hamiltonian equations of motion for three mutually gravitating bodies, and we use the formalism to study the dynamical evolution of hierarchical three-body systems to octupole-level accuracy. Our study is partly motivated by recent observations of exoplanetary systems, which may include two giant planets strongly perturbing each ot...
متن کاملEffects of Secular Interactions in Extrasolar Planetary Systems
This paper studies the effects of dynamical interactions among the planets in observed extrasolar planetary systems, including hypothetical additional bodies, with a focus on secular perturbations. These interactions cause the eccentricities of the planets to explore a distribution of values over time scales that are long compared to observational time baselines, but short compared to the age o...
