Planet Eclipse Mapping with Long-term Baseline Drifts

High-precision lightcurves combined with eclipse-mapping techniques can reveal the horizontal and vertical structure of a planet’s thermal emission and the dynamics of hot Jupiters. Someday, they even may reveal the surface maps of rocky planets. However, inverting lightcurves into maps requires an...
