Giant Planet Interior Structure and Thermal Evolution
Jonathan J. Fortney, Isabelle Baraffe, Burkhard Militzer
We discuss the interior structure and composition of giant planets, and how this structure changes as these planets cool and contract over time. Here we define giant planets as tho…
Computation of the High Temperature Coulomb Density Matrix in Periodic Boundary Conditions
B. Militzer
The high temperature many-body density matrix is fundamental to path integral computation. The pair approximation, where the interaction part is written as a product of pair densit…
Correlations in Hot Dense Helium
Burkhard Militzer
Hot dense helium is studied with first-principles computer simulations. By combining path integral Monte Carlo and density functional molecular dynamics, a large temperature and de…
Frontiers of the physics of dense plasmas and planetary interiors: experiments, theory, applications
J. J. Fortney, S. H. Glenzer, M. Koenig +3
Recent developments of dynamic x-ray characterization experiments of dense matter are reviewed, with particular emphasis on conditions relevant to interiors of terrestrial and gas…
