Atmospheric Chemistry in Giant Planets, Brown Dwarfs, and Low-Mass Dwarf Stars II. Sulfur and Phosphorus
Channon Visscher, Katharina Lodders, Bruce Fegley
Thermochemical equilibrium and kinetic calculations are used to model sulfur and phosphorus chemistry in giant planets, brown dwarfs, and extrasolar giant planets (EGPs). The chemi…

Chemical Constraints on the Water and Total Oxygen Abundances in the Deep Atmosphere of Saturn
Channon Visscher, Bruce Fegley
Thermochemical equilibrium and kinetic calculations for the trace gases CO, PH3, and SiH4 give three independent constraints on the water and total oxygen abundances of Saturn's de…

Predicted Abundances of Carbon Compounds in Volcanic Gases on Io
Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley
We use chemical equilibrium calculations to model the speciation of carbon in volcanic gases on Io. The calculations cover wide temperature (500-2000 K), pressure (10^-8 to 10^+2 b…
