Hot interiors of ice giant planets inferred from electrical conductivity of dense H2O fluid
Kenta Oka, Yoshiyuki Okuda, Kei Hirose
Uranus and Neptune have intrinsic magnetic fields generated via convection in a molten H2O layer, where the field strength is determined by its electrical conductivity (EC) along w…
