Atmospheric dynamics and cloud formation of brown dwarfs and directly imaged exoplanets.

• Cloud radiative feedback, tropical waves, vortices, light curves in global circulation models [link].
• Cloud radiative feedback, vortex dynamics in regional f-plane circulation models [link].
• Cloud radiative feedback, spontaneous variability, self-maintenance in 1D models [link].
• Jets and passive tracer (clouds, chemistry) mixing driven by convective forcing in idealized circulation models [link].

General circulation, phase curves, and spectrum modeling of hot Jupiters

• Effects of hydrogen dissociation/recombination on the circulation and phase curve using semi-grey circulation models [link].
• Phase curve and spectrum modeling of ultra-hot Jupiter population using circulation models with correlated-k radiative transfer [link].

Circulation and phase curve of brown dwarfs around white dwarfs in extremely tight orbits

• Effects of increasing rotation in the circulation and phase curve of tight WDBD pairs [link].
• Interesting 3D chemical mixing leads to asymmetric light curves at the CO band, which qualitatively explains the observations of ZTF0038. [link].

For HST phase curve observations of several WDBD pairs (PI: Daniel Apai) see the Publication page. JWST cycle 3 phase curve observations of several WDBD pairs have been awarded (PI: Yifan Zhou).
