Phase Curves of Hot Neptune LTT 9779b Suggest a High-metallicity Atmosphere

Phase-curve measurements provide a global view of the composition, thermal structure, and dynamics of exoplanet atmospheres. Although most of the dozens of phase-curve measurements made to date are of large, massive hot Jupiters, there is considerable interest in probing the atmospheres of the small...
