Implications of Shock Wave Experiments with Precompressed Materials for Giant Planet Interiors
Burkhard Militzer, William B. Hubbard
This work uses density functional molecular dynamics simulations of fluid helium at high pressure to examine how shock wave experiments with precompressed samples can help characte…
Mass-Radius Relationships for Solid Exoplanets
S. Seager, M. Kuchner, C. Hier-Majumder +1
We use new interior models of cold planets to investigate the mass-radius relationships of solid exoplanets, considering planets made primarily of iron, silicates, water, and carbo…
Properties of Dense Fluid Hydrogen and Helium in Giant Gas Planets
Jan Vorberger, Isaac Tamblyn, Stanimir A. Bonev +1
Equilibrium properties of hydrogen-helium mixtures under thermodynamic conditions found in the interior of giant gas planets are studied by means of density functional theory molec…
