Convective dynamics in mantle of tidally-locked exoplanets

Abstract Tidal locking imposes distinctive thermal forcing on super-Earth exoplanets in habitable zones, i.e., permanent stellar flux forces extraordinary day-night temperature contrast. However, it may be premature to conclude that life is absent in such supposedly harsh environments—flaming hot on...
