Super-Earth Interiors Shrink by About 10% as They Crystallise
Tim Lichtenberg, Mara Attia, Harrison Nicholls +26
Super-Earth exoplanets are among the most abundant planets known, yet their bulk densities leave the interior state degenerate. The static structure models used to interpret them,…
Low-spin ferrous iron suppresses mantle oxidation beyond Earth-like pressures
Alice Girani, Sylvain Petitgirard, Sergey Yaroslavstsev +5
The Earth's mantle has elevated Fe relative to those of other rocky bodies, yet the oxidation- and electronic state of iron at extreme pressures is poorly known. We present…
Physicochemical Controls on the Compositions of the Earth and Planets
Paolo A. Sossi, Remco C. Hin, Thorsten Kleine +2
Despite the fact that the terrestrial planets formed from the protoplanetary disk, their compositions show marked departures from that of solar nebula condensates. Metallic cores f…
Water solubility in silicate melts: The effects of melt composition under reducing conditions and implications for nebular ingassing on rocky planets
Maggie A. Thompson, Paolo A. Sossi, Dan J. Bower +3
Rocky planet atmospheres form and evolve through interactions between the planet's surface and interior. If a growing rocky planet acquires enough mass prior to the dissipation of…
A massive primordial atmosphere on early Mars
Sarah Joiret, Alessandro Morbidelli, Rafael de Sousa Ribeiro +2
Mars finished forming while the solar nebula was still present, and acquired its primordial atmosphere from this reservoir. The absence of a detectable cometary xenon signature in…
Volatile-bearing mineral atmospheres of hot rocky exoplanets as probes of interior state and composition
Fabian L. Seidler, Paolo A. Sossi, Dan J. Bower +1
The atmospheres of hot rocky exoplanets (HREs), should they persist, are products of interactions with underlying magma oceans. Spectra collected by the James Webb Space Telescope…
