Characterising Jupiter's dynamo radius using its magnetic energy spectrum
Yue-Kin Tsang, Chris A. Jones
Jupiter's magnetic field is generated by the convection of liquid metallic hydrogen in its interior. The transition from molecular hydrogen to metallic hydrogen as temperature and…

Anelastic torsional oscillations in Jupiter's metallic hydrogen region
Kumiko Hori, Robert J. Teed, Chris A Jones
We consider torsional Alfvén waves which may be excited in Jupiter's metallic hydrogen region. These axisymmetric zonal flow fluctuations have previously been examined for incompre…

Anelastic spherical dynamos with radially variable electrical conductivity
Wieland Dietrich, Chris. A. Jones
A series of numerical simulations of the dynamo process operating inside gas giant planets has been performed. We use an anelastic, fully nonlinear, three-dimensional, benchmarked…
