direction which is in contrast to models for other hot Jupiters. One possible explanation is that the planetary atmosphere effectively interacts with the planetary magnetic field and this suppresses the formation of a strong eastward jet stream. It is exciting to see this effect directly from the thermal map!” said co-author Xianyu Tan, of Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
