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,…
Atmospheric evolution through outgassing and escape on young molten rocky exoplanets
Emma Postolec, Tim Lichtenberg, Harrison Nicholls +2
The earliest rocky planet atmospheres are shaped by competition between initial volatile inventories and atmospheric escape. On young magma ocean planets, outgassing competes with…
Geophysical and atmospheric implications of O-dependent melting on rocky exoplanets
Mariana Sastre, Tim Lichtenberg, Laurent Soucasse +3
The geochemical evolution of long-lived magma oceans is strongly regulated by volatile exchange between the molten mantle and the atmosphere. For planets inside the runaway-greenho…
Coupled atmospHere Interior modeL Intercomparison (CHILI) Protocol Version 1.0: A CUISINES Intercomparison Project of Magma Ocean Models
Tim Lichtenberg, Laura Schaefer, Joshua Krissansen-Totton +23
Spectroscopic characterization of rocky exoplanets with the James Webb Space Telescope has brought the origin and evolution of their atmospheres into the focus of exoplanet science…
Convective shutdown in the atmospheres of lava worlds
Harrison Nicholls, Raymond T. Pierrehumbert, Tim Lichtenberg +2
Atmospheric energy transport is central to the cooling of primordial magma oceans. Theoretical studies of atmospheres on lava planets have assumed that convection is the only proce…
