Comparison of Jupiter Interior Models Derived from First-Principles Simulations
B. Militzer, W. B. Hubbard
Recently two groups used first-principles computer simulations to model Jupiter's interior. While both studies relied on the same simulation technique, density functional molecular…
A Massive Core in Jupiter Predicted From First-Principles Simulations
B. Militzer, W. B. Hubbard, J. Vorberger +2
Hydrogen-helium mixtures at conditions of Jupiter's interior are studied with first-principles computer simulations. The resulting equation of state (EOS) implies that Jupiter poss…
Theoretical Radii of Transiting Giant Planets: The Case of OGLE-TR-56b
A. Burrows, I. Hubeny, W. B. Hubbard +2
We calculate radius versus age trajectories for the photometrically-selected transiting extrasolar giant planet, OGLE-TR-56b, and find agreement between theory and observation, wit…
Effects of Helium Phase Separation on the Evolution of Extrasolar Giant Planets
Jonathan J. Fortney, W. B. Hubbard
We build on recent new evolutionary models of Jupiter and Saturn and here extend our calculations to investigate the evolution of extrasolar giant planets of mass 0.15 to 3.0 M_J.…
A Theory for the Radius of the Transiting Giant Planet HD 209458b
Adam Burrows, David Sudarsky, William B. Hubbard
Using a full frequency-dependent atmosphere code that can incorporate irradiation by a central primary star, we calculate self-consistent boundary conditions for the evolution of t…
