SUMMARY:Hotter than Hell: Understanding Ultra-Hot Jupiters through transmis
 sion spectroscopy
DESCRIPTION:Hotter than Hell: Understanding Ultra-Hot Jupiters through tran
 smission spectroscopy\nJulia Seidel\n\nIn the rapidly changing world of ex
 oplanets, a new class of planets has emerged recently: the so called Ultra
 -Hot Jupiters, which have no analogue in our own solar system. Characteris
 ed by their short orbits and proximity to their host star, these worlds re
 ceive thousands of times the Earth&rsquo;s insolation and have effective t
 emperatures above 2000 K, making them intriguing candidates to study the m
 ost extreme atmospheric environments. A notable feature of these high temp
 eratures is that the transmission spectra of these planets are rich in ato
 mic metal lines, which provide new probes into the chemistry and dynamics 
 of their atmospheres. I will highlight what we have recently learned about
  Ultra-Hot Jupiter atmospheres and focus on what knowledge can be derived 
 directly from ground-based observations via transmission spectroscopy.\n&n
