Impacts of zonal winds on planetary oscillations and Saturn ring seismology
Janosz W. Dewberry, Christopher R. Mankovich, Jim Fuller
The excitation of density and bending waves in Saturn's C ring by planetary oscillation modes presents a unique opportunity to learn about gas giant interiors and rotation. However…
Kronoseismology V: A Panoply of Waves in Saturn's C Ring Driven by High-Order Internal Planetary Oscillations
R. G. French, B. Bridges, M. M. Hedman +3
Saturn's rings act as a system of innumerable test particles that are remarkably sensitive to periodic disturbances in the planet's gravitational field. We identify 15 additional d…
Bayesian Evolution Models for Jupiter with Helium Rain and Double-diffusive Convection
Christopher Mankovich, Jonathan J. Fortney, Kevin L. Moore
Hydrogen and helium demix when sufficiently cool, and this bears on the evolution of all giant planets at large separations at or below roughly a Jupiter mass. We model the thermal…
An Exploration of Double Diffusive Convection in Jupiter as a Result of Hydrogen-Helium Phase Separation
N. Nettelmann, J. J. Fortney, K. Moore +1
Jupiter's atmosphere has been observed to be depleted in helium (Yatm~0.24), suggesting active helium sedimentation in the interior. This is accounted for in standard Jupiter struc…
