21 Planets This type of analysis (consistent evolution, radius, spectrum) has yet to be successfully applied to the known hot companions Need to take care in interpretation - not just about fitting models to spectra or photometry 14
22 Challenges for Interpretting Directly Imaged Planets L HR 8799 b,c,d and 2M1207B look like extensions of L sequence T Cloudy, lower gravity & lower Teff than field L dwarfs Clouds Need to understand clouds and mixing to interpret their spectra Clouds Nature of L-T transition Ultimately water clouds 15
23 50% 75% g=10 5 cm s -2 Does L/T transition arise from partial cloudiness, varying sedimentation efficiency, or some other mechanism? GPI will probe and expand this parameter space. Partly Cloudy 1000K 16

25 600K 300K 18
26 What will be effect of water clouds? Teff = 300 K g = 100 m sec -2 19
27 In this model NIR cloud signature mostly in J band (depends on particle size). Water cloud giants will likely show great spectral diversity depending on fractional cloud coverage and particle sizes which in turn depend on atmospheric dynamics, gravity, Teff, and metallicity. 20
28 Polarization of Thermal Emission 21
29 Cloudless atmospheres are polarized in thermal emission only in the blue Requires clouds for significant signal Oblate body low gravity fast rotation Requirements Sengupta & Marley
30 Sengupta & Marley
31 Planet Polarization Polarization (few percent at best) implies 1.5 Low gravity Fast rotation Clouds Favorable i I J Non-detection not very informative Sengupta & Marley
32 But...Assumed Homogeneous Cloud Deck Large fraction of polarized, cloudy planets may imply inhomogeneous cloud distribution. Ultimately may be a statistical argument. Polarization is interesting, but not highest priority. 25
33 Ongoing Challenges Opacities (methane, ammonia) Clouds Mixing Lots of interesting science awaits 26
