Thermal structure of an exoplanet atmosphere from phase-resolved emission spectroscopy

Thermal structure of an exoplanet atmosphere from phase-resolved emission spectroscopy

Exoplanets that orbit close to their host stars are much more highly irradiated than their solar system counterparts. Understanding the thermal structures and appearances of these planets requires investigating how their atmospheres respond to such extreme stellar forcing. We present spectroscopic t...
