Next-Generation Atmosphere Models for Giant Planets with Application to Coupled Interior Composition and Spectral Evolution I: Cloudless Models with Equilibrium Chemistry
Yi-Xian Chen, Roberto Tejada Arevalo, Adam Burrows +1
We present updated atmosphere models designed for calculating the post-formation evolution and cooling of giant planets with masses between and . Our tables provide…
Different Inhomogeneous Evolutionary Histories for Uranus and Neptune
Roberto Tejada Arevalo
We present updated non-adiabatic and inhomogeneous evolution models for Uranus and Neptune, employing an interior composition of methane, ammonia, water, and rocks. Following forma…
Simultaneous Evolutionary Fits for Jupiter and Saturn Incorporating Fuzzy Cores
Ankan Sur, Roberto Tejada Arevalo, Yubo Su +1
With the recent realization that there likely are stably-stratified regions in the interiors of both Jupiter and Saturn, we construct new non-adiabatic, inhomogeneous evolutionary…
Jupiter Evolutionary Models Incorporating Stably Stratified Regions
Roberto Tejada Arevalo, Ankan Sur, Yubo Su +1
We address the issue of which broad set of initial conditions for the planet Jupiter best matches the current presence of a ``fuzzy core" of heavy elements, while at the same time…
Equations of State, Thermodynamics, and Miscibility Curves for Jovian Planet and Giant Exoplanet Evolutionary Models
Roberto Tejada Arevalo, Yubo Su, Ankan Sur +1
The equation of state of hydrogen-helium (H-He) mixtures plays a vital role in the evolution and structure of gas giant planets and exoplanets. Recent equations of state that accou…
APPLE: An Evolution Code for Modeling Giant Planets
Ankan Sur, Yubo Su, Roberto Tejada Arevalo +2
We introduce APPLE, a novel planetary evolution code designed specifically for the study of giant exoplanet and Jovian planet evolution in the era of Galileo, Juno, and Cassini. Wi…
