Saturn's Probable Interior: An Exploration of Saturn's Potential Interior Density Structures
Naor Movshovitz, Jonathan J. Fortney, Chris Mankovich +2
The gravity field of a giant planet is typically our best window into its interior structure and composition. Through comparison of a model planet's calculated gravitational potent…
Do Metal-Rich Stars Make Metal-Rich Planets? New Insights on Giant Planet Formation from Host Star Abundances
Johanna K. Teske, Daniel Thorngren, Jonathan J. Fortney +2
The relationship between the compositions of giant planets and their host stars is of fundamental interest in understanding planet formation. The solar system giant planets are enh…
An Empirical Mass-Radius Relation for Cool Giant Planets
Daniel P. Thorngren, Mark S. Marley, Jonathan J. Fortney
Probabilistic relationships between the mass and radius of planets are useful for a variety of purposes, including estimating the yields of planet discovery efforts and the radii o…
Investigating Trends in Atmospheric Compositions of Cool Gas Giant Planets Using Spitzer Secondary Eclipses
Nicole L. Wallack, Heather A. Knutson, Caroline V. Morley +7
We present new 3.6 and 4.5 micron secondary eclipse measurements for five cool (less than approximately 1000 K) transiting gas giant planets: HAT-P-15b, HAT-P-17b, HAT-P-18b, HAT-P…
The Intrinsic Temperature and Radiative-Convective Boundary Depth in the Atmospheres of Hot Jupiters
Daniel P. Thorngren, Peter Gao, Jonathan J. Fortney
In giant planet atmosphere modelling, the intrinsic temperature and radiative-convective boundary (RCB) are important lower boundary conditions. Often in one-dimen…
Diffuser-Assisted Infrared Transit Photometry for Four Dynamically Interacting \textit{Kepler} Systems
Shreyas Vissapragada, Daniel Jontof-Hutter, Avi Shporer +11
We present ground-based infrared transit observations for four dynamically interacting \textit{Kepler} planets, including Kepler-29b, Kepler-36c, KOI-1783.01, and Kepler-177c, obta…
