Magnetic induction processes in Hot Jupiters, application to KELT-9b
Wieland Dietrich, Sandeep Kumar, Anna Julia Poser +4
The small semi-major axes of Hot Jupiters lead to high atmospheric temperatures of up to several thousand Kelvin. Under these conditions, thermally ionised metals provide a rich so…
Ionization and transport in partially ionized multicomponent plasmas: Application to atmospheres of hot Jupiters
Sandeep Kumar, Anna Julia Poser, Manuel Schöttler +5
We study ionization and transport processes in partially ionized multicomponent plasmas. The plasma composition is calculated via a system of coupled mass action laws. The electron…
Linking Zonal Winds and Gravity: The Relative Importance of Dynamic Self Gravity
Johannes Wicht, Wieland Dietrich, Paula Wulff +1
Recent precise measurements at Jupiter's and Saturn's gravity fields constrain the properties of the zonal flows in the outer envelopes of these planets. A simplified dynamic equat…
Penetrative Convection in Partly Stratified Rapidly Rotating Spherical Shells
Wieland Dietrich, Johannes Wicht
Celestial objects host interfaces between convective and stable stratified interior regions. The interaction between both, e.g., the transfer of heat, mass, or angular momentum dep…
Dynamo Action in the Steeply Decaying Conductivity Region of Jupiter-like Dynamo Models
Johannes Wicht, Thomas Gastine, Lucia D. V. Duarte
The Juno mission is delivering spectacular data of Jupiter's magnetic field, while the gravity measurements finally allow constraining the depth of the winds observed at cloud leve…
Material Properties for the Interiors of Massive Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs
Andreas Becker, Mandy Bethkenhagen, Clemens Kellermann +2
We present thermodynamic material and transport properties for the extreme conditions prevalent in the interiors of massive giant planets and brown dwarfs. They are obtained from e…
