Alkali lines at extreme densities and their impact on giant planet interior structure
Louis Siebenaler, Nicole F. Allard, Esther van Dijk +1
Alkali lines, in particular the sodium Na (5891, 5897) and potassium K (7667, 7701) resonance doublets, are dominant opacity sources in giant planets over a wid…
Juno Microwave Observations Reveal Jupiter's Deep Alkali-Chlorine Relation
Xi Zhang, Jiheng Hu, Cheng Li +2
The longest-wavelength channel of the Juno Microwave Radiometer (MWR) probes Jupiter's kilobar atmosphere through free electrons produced by sodium and potassium ionization. Under…
Implications of a Stable Layer on the Vertical Structure of Jet Streams on Jupiter
Keren Duer-Milner, Louis Siebenaler, Lillian Haley +1
The vertical structure of Jupiter's jet streams remains a critical open question for understanding the planet's atmospheric dynamics and interior. Traditional models often assume a…
Mean opacity tables for probing the interior and atmosphere of giant planets
Louis Siebenaler, Yamila Miguel
We present new Rosseland and Planck mean opacity tables relevant to the shallow interiors and atmospheres of giant planets. The tables span metallicities from 0.31 to 50 times sola…
Conditions for radiative zones in the molecular hydrogen envelope of Jupiter and Saturn: The role of alkali metals
Louis Siebenaler, Yamila Miguel, Sam de Regt +1
Interior models of gas giants in the Solar System traditionally assume a fully convective molecular hydrogen envelope. However, recent observations from the Juno mission suggest a…
