Stellar wind effect on the atmospheric escape of hot Jupiters and their Ly α and H α transits
Atmospheric escape of close-in exoplanets can be driven by high-energy radiation from the host star. The planetary outflows interacting with the stellar wind may generate observable transit signals that depend on the strength of the stellar wind. We perform detailed radiation-hydrodynamics simulatio...
