A Unified Theory for the Atmospheres of the Hot and Very Hot Jupiters: Two Classes of Irradiated Atmospheres
We highlight the importance of gaseous TiO and VO opacity on the highly irradiated close-in giant planets. The atmospheres of these planets naturally fall into two classes that are somewhat analogous to the Mand Ltype dwarfs. Those that are warm enough to have appreciable opacity due to TiO and VO gases we term the “pM Class” planets, and those that are cooler, such that Ti and V are predominan...
متن کاملMapping the Atmospheres of Hot Jupiters
We present the results of recent observations of phase-dependent variations in brightness designed to characterize the atmospheres of hot Jupiters. In particular, we focus on recent observations of the transiting planet HD 189733b at 8 μm using the Spitzer Space Telescope, which allow us to determine the efficiency of the day-night circulation on this planet and estimate the longitudinal positi...
متن کاملNo Detectable H3 Emission from the Atmospheres of Hot Jupiters
H3 emission is the dominant cooling mechanism in Jupiter’s thermosphere and a useful probe of temperature and ion densities. The H3 ion is predicted to form in the thermospheres of close-in ‘hot Jupiters’ where its emission would be a significant factor in the thermal energy budget, affecting temperature and the rate of hydrogen escape from the exosphere. Hot Jupiters are predicted to have up t...
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 کاملa case study of the two translators of the holy quran: tahereh saffarzadeh and laleh bakhtiar
بطورکلی، کتاب های مقدسی همچون قران کریم را خوانندگان میتوان مطابق با پیش زمینه های مختلفی که درند درک کنند. محقق تلاش کرده نقش پیش زمینه اجتماعی-فرهنگی را روی ایدئولوژی های مترجمین زن و در نتیجه تاثیراتش را روی خواندن و ترجمه آیات قرآن کریم بررسی کند و ببیند که آیا تفاوت های واژگانی عمده ای میان این مترجمین وجود دارد یا نه. به این منظور، ترجمه 24 آیه از آیات قرآن کریم مورد بررسی مقایسه ای قرار ...
