Regime transitions of dynamos driven by fingering double-diffusive convection
Wei Fan, YufengLin
Long-term cooling of planetary interiors is expected to progressively establish thermally stable stratification in the liquid outer core, yet its influence on dynamo action remains…
Dynamos driven by top-heavy double-diffusive convection in the strong-field regime
Wei Fan, Yufeng Lin
The magnetic fields of terrestrial planets are generated in their liquid cores through dynamo action driven by thermal and compositional convection. The coexistence of these two bu…
Ocean Tides on Asynchronously Rotating Planets Orbiting Low-mass Stars
Jiaru Shi, Jun Yang, Dorian S. Abbot +3
Planets in the liquid-water habitable zone of low-mass stars experience large tidal forces, to times those on Earth, due to the small distance between the habitable z…
Numerical Simulations of Magnetic Effects on Zonal Flows in Giant Planets
Shanshan Xue, Yufeng Lin
Jupiter and Saturn exhibit alternating east-west jet streams as seen from surface. The origin of these zonal flows has been debated for decades. The high-precision gravity measurem…
Dynamical tides in Jupiter and the role of interior structure
Yufeng Lin
Context. The Juno spacecraft has obtained highly accurate tidal Love numbers, which provide important constraints on the tidal response and interior structure of Jupiter. Aims. In…
Tidal dissipation in rotating fluid bodies: the presence of a magnetic field
Yufeng Lin, Gordon I. Ogilvie
We investigate effects of the presence of a magnetic field on tidal dissipation in rotating fluid bodies. We consider a simplified model consisting of a rigid core and a fluid enve…
Tidal interactions in spin-orbit misaligned systems
Yufeng Lin, Gordon Ogilvie
Spin-orbit misalignments have been detected in exoplanetary systems and binary star systems. Tidal interactions may have played an important role in the evolution of the spin-orbit…
