Abstract

In this work we applied the previously developed self-consistent 1D model of hydrogen-helium atmosphere with suprathermal electrons to close-in hot neptune GJ 436 b. The obtained height profile of density shows the two-scale structure of the planetary atmosphere. The mass-loss rate is found to be about .
