Experimental study of internal wave generation by convection in water
Michael Le Bars, Daniel Lecoanet, Stéphane Perrard +4
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of water cooled from below at 0^oC and heated from above. Taking advantage of the unusual property that water's density maximum is at abo…
Experimental study of libration-driven zonal flows in non-axisymmetric containers
Jerome Noir, David Cébron, Michael Le Bars +2
Orbital dynamics that lead to longitudinal libration of celestial bodies also result in an elliptically deformed equatorial core-mantle boundary. The non-axisymmetry of the boundar…
A Re-appraisal of the Habitability of Planets Around M Dwarf Stars
Jill C. Tarter, Peter R. Backus, Rocco L. Mancinelli +29
Stable, hydrogen-burning, M dwarf stars comprise about 75% of all stars in the Galaxy. They are extremely long-lived and because they are much smaller in mass than the Sun (between…
