Excitation and Damping of Oscillation Modes in Gaseous Planets
Jim Fuller, Marzia Parisi, Steve Markham +2
The excitation and damping mechanisms for oscillation modes of gas giant planets are undetermined. We show that differential rotation may greatly enhance convective viscosity in gi…
Setting the Stage for Uranian Seismology from Rings and Radial Velocities
Christopher R. Mankovich, A. James Friedson, Marzia Parisi +6
A Uranus orbiter would be well positioned to detect the planet's free oscillation modes, whose frequencies can resolve questions about Uranus's weakly constrained interior. We calc…
Evidence of a Polar Cyclone on Uranus from VLA Observations
Alex Akins, Mark Hofstadter, Bryan Butler +4
We present observations of Uranus in northern spring with the VLA from 0.7 cm to 5 cm. These observations reveal details in thermal emission from Uranus' north pole at 10s of bars,…
The Super-Earth Opportunity - Search for Habitable Exoplanets in the 2020s
Renyu Hu, Charles A. Beichman, David Brain +23
The recent discovery of a staggering diversity of planets beyond the Solar System has brought with it a greatly expanded search space for habitable worlds. The Kepler exoplanet sur…
Buildup of Abiotic Oxygen and Ozone in Moist Atmospheres of Temperate Terrestrial Exoplanets and its Impact on the Spectral Fingerprint in Transit Observations
Armin Kleinböhl, Karen Willacy, A. James Friedson +2
We investigate the abiotic production of oxygen and its photochemical byproduct ozone through water vapor photolysis in moist atmospheres of temperate terrestrial exoplanets. The a…
Disequilibrium Carbon, Oxygen, and Nitrogen Chemistry in the Atmospheres of HD 189733b and HD 209458b
Julianne I. Moses, Channon Visscher, Jonathan J. Fortney +8
We have developed 1-D photochemical and thermochemical kinetics and diffusion models for the transiting exoplanets HD 189733b and HD 209458b to study the effects of disequilibrium…
