Photochemistry and Aerosols Formation in Hot-Jupiter Exoplanet Atmospheres
Abstract
Photochemistry can substantially affect the gas-phase composition of warm exoplanet atmospheres and lead to the formation of aerosols with consequences on the radiative transfer, thermal structure, and dynamics of the atmospheres. In this work, we investigated experimentally the photochemistry and the formation of photochemical aerosols in 'carbon-rich' Hot Jupiter atmospheres.
