Exoplanet Atmosphere Retrievals in 3D Using Phase Curve Data with ARCiS: Application to WASP-43b

Open Access

Table 6

Hotspot offsets for WASP-43b based on various analyses of the WASP-43b phase curve in the literature, based on the 4.5 μm Spitzer point only (as published by May & Stevenson 2020 and Bell et al. 2021).

Analysis	Hotspot offset (^°)
Stevenson et al. (2017)^(a)	21.1 ± 1.8
Mendonça et al. (2018a)^(b)	12 ± 3.0
Morello et al. (2019)	11.3 ± 2.1
May & Stevenson (2020)	20.6 ± 2.0
Bell et al. (2021)	20.4 ± 3.6
