Dwindling Surface Cooling of a Rotating Jovian Planet Leads to a Convection Zone that Grows to a Finite Depth
Bradley W. Hindman, J. R. Fuentes
Recent measurements of Jupiter's gravitational field (by Juno) and seismology of Saturn's rings (by Cassini) strongly suggest that both planets have a stably-stratified core that s…
Assessing the Observability of Deep Meridional Flow Cells in the Solar Interior
J. R. Fuentes, Bradley W. Hindman, Junwei Zhao +6
Meridional circulation regulates the Sun's interior dynamics and magnetism. While it is well accepted that meridional flows are poleward at the Sun's surface, helioseismic observat…
Rotation reduces convective mixing in Jupiter and other gas giants
J. R. Fuentes, Evan H. Anders, Andrew Cumming +1
Recent measurements of Jupiter's gravitational moments by the Juno spacecraft and seismology of Saturn's rings suggest that the primordial composition gradients in the deep interio…
The Puzzling Structure of Solar Convection: Window into the Dynamo
Nicholas A. Featherstone, Kyle C. Augustson, Jonathan M. Aurnou +25
The operation of the solar dynamo, with all of its remarkable spatio-temporal ordering, remains an outstanding problem of modern solar physics. A number of mechanisms that might pl…
Heat transport and convective velocities in compositionally-driven convection in neutron star and white dwarf interiors
J. R. Fuentes, A. Cumming, M. Castro-Tapia +1
We investigate heat transport associated with compositionally-driven convection driven by crystallization at the ocean-crust interface in accreting neutron stars, or growth of the…
