Resonant lunar tides of Earth's core and basal magma ocean
Murray B. C. Kiernan, Hamish C. F. C. Hay, David W. Rees Jones +2
Earth's magnetic field is generated by fluid motion in the liquid-metal core and has been active for billions of year. However, prior to the onset of inner-core growth, the sources…
Poro-viscoelastic tidal heating of Io
Hamish C. F. C. Hay, Ian Hewitt, Marc Rovira-Navarro +1
Io's tidally driven global volcanism indicates widespread partial melting in its mantle. How this melt participates in the interior dynamics, and, in particular, the role it plays…
Self-limited tidal heating and prolonged magma oceans in the L 98-59 system
Harrison Nicholls, Claire Marie Guimond, Hamish C. F. C. Hay +3
Rocky exoplanets accessible to characterisation often lie on close-in orbits where tidal heating within their interiors is significant, with the L 98-59 planetary system being a pr…
Reliable Detections of Atmospheres on Rocky Exoplanets with Photometric JWST Phase Curves
Mark Hammond, Claire Marie Guimond, Tim Lichtenberg +9
The prevalence of atmospheres on rocky planets is one of the major questions in exoplanet astronomy, but there are currently no published unambiguous detections of atmospheres on a…
