VizieR Online Data Catalog: Simulations of hot gas planets atmospheres (Salz+, 2016)

The following tables contain the simulation results from the publication. Each table contains a 1D spherically symmetric, hydrodynamically escaping thermosphere of a hot gas planet. The atmospheres contain hydrogen and helium, and no molecules. The simulations were performed with the PLUTO-CLOUDY interface (Salz et al., Cat. J/A+A/576/A21). Each table contains a header, which specifies the system parameters, that where used for the simulations. The simulation region extends to 12/15 planetary radii, but the atmospheres are only approximately valid up to the Roche-lobe height, above which the spherical approximation is invalid. The Roche-lobe height is also given in the header. In the cases of WASP-10 b and WASP-8 b the atmospheres are hydrodynamically stable and the atmospheres extend only up to the exobase defined for proton-proton scattering as given in the publication.
