The information content of optical intensity interferometry
Neal Dalal, Biwei Dai, Matthew K. Browning
Optical intensity interferometry (II) can in principle resolve structure on angular scales , but it measures only the squared visibility , discarding Fouri…
Superrotation and Jet Migration in Simulations of Giant Planet Atmospheres
Loren Matilsky, Geoffrey Vallis, Matthew Browning +1
The mean zonal flow on both Jupiter and Saturn consists of an intricate pattern of jets moving prograde or retrograde compared to the bulk planetary rotation. The strongest jet str…
Diffusion-Free Dynamics in Rotating Spherical Shell Convection Driven By Internal Heating and Cooling
Neil T. Lewis, Tom Joshi-Hartley, Steven M. Tobias +2
The bulk properties of convection in stellar and giant planet interiors are often assumed to be independent of the molecular diffusivities, which are very small. By contrast, simul…
Heat Transport and Dissipation in 2.5D Rotating Internally Heated and Cooled Convection
Tom Joshi-Hartley, Matthew K. Browning, Laura K. Currie +3
Models of astrophysical convection, such as mixing length theory, typically assume that the heat transport is independent of microphysical diffusivities. Such 'diffusion-free' beha…
