Atmospheric circulation of hot Jupiters: dayside–nightside temperature differences. II. Comparison with observations
The full-phase infrared light curves of low-eccentricity hot Jupiters show a trend of increasing fractional dayside–nightside brightness temperature difference with increasing incident stellar flux, both averaged across the infrared and in each individual wavelength band. The analytic theory of Koma...
