Enceladus's Limit Cycle
Peter Goldreich, Yoram Lithwick, Jing Luan
Enceladus exhibits some remarkable phenomena, including water geysers spraying through surface cracks, a global ice shell that is librating atop an ocean, a large luminosity, and r…
Titan's Dynamic Love Number Implies Stably-Stratified Ocean
Jing Luan
The dynamic quadrupole Love number of Titan measured by \Cassini is , strongly indicating a global subsurface ocean. However, the theoretical Love…
DAVs: Red edge and Outbursts
Jing Luan, Peter Goldreich
As established by ground based surveys, white dwarfs with hydrogen atmospheres pulsate as they cool across the temperature range, $12500\,\mathrm{K} \gtrsim T_{\mathrm{eff}} \gtrsi…
How Cassini Can Constrain Tidal Dissipation in Saturn
Jing Luan, Jim Fuller, Eliot Quataert
Tidal dissipation inside giant planets is important for the orbital evolution of their natural satellites. It is conventionally treated by parameterized equilibrium tidal theory, i…
Resonance locking as the source of rapid tidal migration in the Jupiter and Saturn moon systems
Jim Fuller, Jing Luan, Eliot Quataert
The inner moons of Jupiter and Saturn migrate outwards due to tidal energy dissipation within the planets, the details of which remain poorly understood. We demonstrate that resona…
Thermal Conductivity Of Rubble Piles
Jing Luan, Peter Goldreich
Rubble piles are a common feature of solar system bodies. They are composed of monolithic elements of ice or rock bound by gravity. Voids occupy a significant fraction of the volum…
