Speed of the equatorial jet on HD 80606 b with different rotation periods, computed using the method described in Fig. 2. Each panel shares the same horizontal axis but has a unique vertical axis. The speed increases as the rotation period increases, although the jet is still only driven around periastron. When halving the rotation period, a consistent jet fails to form around the whole equator, so the zonally averaged zonal wind speed is decreased.
