Modeling Carbon-Based Planets with MAGRATHEA
Robert Royer, David R. Rice, Jason H. Steffen
A planet's interior structure not only influences its habitability, but it also provides information about the planet's formation and history. In the quest to characterize the vari…
Plan 9: Detecting Atmospheric Deterrence Against Interstellar Monsters
David R. Rice, Michael J. Radke
Exoplanet atmospheres are usually discussed as tracers of climate, chemistry, and habitability, but they may also preserve signatures of planetary defense. We consider three folklo…
Magrathea v2: A planetary interior modeling platform in C++
David R. Rice, Chenliang Huang, Robert Royer +5
Magrathea is an open-source C++ code for modeling the internal structure of differentiated planets. The initial release, Huang et al. (2022), introduced the base solver, a modular…
Effect of Galactic Chemical Evolution on Exoplanet Properties
Jason H. Steffen, Cody Shakespeare, Robert Royer +2
We couple a simplified model for the galactic chemical evolution, with software that models the condensation of dust in protoplanetary disks and software that models the interior s…
