Spectral energy distribution of 51 Eri b with the best-fitting salt and sulfide cloud models. Each panel shows the best-fitting model under the specific conditions: the top two panels show the best-fitting solar-metallicity models with a cloudless atmosphere on the left and cloudy atmospheres on the right. The bottom two panels show the best-fitting nonsolar models with a cloudless atmosphere on the left and cloudy atmospheres on the right.
