Physical conditions for Jupiter-like dynamo models
Lucia D. V. Duarte, Johannes Wicht, Thomas Gastine
The Juno mission will measure Jupiter's magnetic field with unprecedented precision and provide a wealth of additional data that will allow to constrain the planet's interior struc…
Scaling regimes in spherical shell rotating convection
T. Gastine, J. Wicht, J. Aubert
Rayleigh-Bénard convection in rotating spherical shells can be considered as a simplified analogue of many astrophysical and geophysical fluid flows. Here, we use three-dimensional…
Reversal and amplification of zonal flows by boundary enforced thermal wind
Wieland Dietrich, Thomas Gastine, Johannes Wicht
Zonal flows in rapidly-rotating celestial objects such as the Sun, gas or ice giants form in a variety of surface patterns and amplitudes. Whereas the differential rotation on the…
Core flows and heat transfer induced by inhomogeneous cooling with sub- and supercritical convection
Wieland Dietrich, Kumiko Hori, Johannes Wicht
The amount and spatial pattern of heat extracted from cores of terrestrial planets is ultimately controlled by the thermal structure of the lower rocky mantle. Using the most commo…
