Wind speed measurements in seven ultra-hot Jupiters decrease with temperature, consistent with magnetic drag and implying magnetic field strengths of a few gauss.
JWST transmission spectrum of WASP-80 b yields log10 X_CS2 = -2.25 with evidence for carbon-sulfur chemical coupling via CH2S networks.
WASP-96b shows super-solar metallicity of 2-6x stellar, roughly stellar C/O, tentative SO2 consistent with photochemistry, and an optical slope from scattering aerosols, supporting core-accretion formation beyond the water snowline.
MASCARA-1b atmosphere has solar metallicity, solar C/O, 2.5x solar refractories, and 2.3x solar refractory-to-volatile ratio, consistent with accretion between soot-H2O and H2O-CO snowlines.
