Breaking Degeneracies in Formation Histories by Measuring Refractory Content in Gas Giants

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Relating planet formation to atmospheric composition has been a long-standing goal of the planetary science community. So far, most modeling studies have focused on predicting the enrichment of heavy elements and the C/O ratio in giant planet atmospheres.

Long-term Stability of Planetary Systems Formed from a Transitional Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Transitional disks are protoplanetary disks with large and deep central holes in the gas, possibly carved by young planets. Dong & Dawson simulated systems with multiple giant planets that were capable of carving and maintaining such gaps during the disk

The significance of coal-derived gas in major gas producing countries

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2019
The core of coal-derived gas theory is that coal measure is the gas source, and the hydrocarbon generation of coal measure is dominated by gas and supplemented by oil, so discoveries in related basins are dominated by gas fields.

Exploration status of the deep Sinian strata in the Sichuan Basin: Formation conditions of old giant carbonate oil/gas fields

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2020
To construct a giant Sichuan gas province, it is in an urgent need of exploring new replacement areas with abundant natural gas resources and great exploration potential. In this paper, the formation conditions (e.g.

Atmospheric Chemistry in Giant Planets, Brown Dwarfs, and Low-Mass Dwarf Stars III. Iron, Magnesium, and Silicon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We use thermochemical equilibrium calculations to model iron, magnesium, and silicon chemistry in the atmospheres of giant planets, brown dwarfs, extrasolar giant planets (EGPs), and low-mass stars.

New progresses in basic geological theories and future exploration domains of natural gas in China

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2018
As natural gas exploration expands to deep, ultra-deep and unconventional areas, more and more complex exploration targets are encountered. In this circumstance, it is necessary to improve the existing basic natural gas geological theories for guiding ...

Influence of Compositional Gradient Effect on Tight Condensate Gas Reservoir Development

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
Condensate gas is a transition fluid between oil and gas, which is sensitive to the reservoir temperature and pressure. In condensate gas reservoir, especially in the moderate-giant one, fluid composition often varies with depth.

THE ORBITAL EVOLUTION OF GAS GIANT PLANETS AROUND GIANT STARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
Recent surveys have revealed a lack of close-in planets around evolved stars more massive than 1.2 Msun. Such planets are common around solar-mass stars. We have calculated the orbital evolution of planets around stars with a range of initial masses, and have shown how planetary orbits are affected by the evolution of the stars all the way to the tip ...

Formation conditions and geological characteristics of deep giant gas provinces in the Kuqa foreland thrust belt

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2012
A series of seismic exploration technologies, such as “wide line and big combination” mountainous seismic acquisition, high steep structure pre-stack depth migration processing and deep tectonic modeling, were used to explore Kuqa deep structures.

The mass of gas giant planets: Is Saturn a failed gas giant?

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
The formation history of giant planets inside and outside the Solar System remains unknown. We suggest that runaway gas accretion is initiated only at a mass of ∼100 M⊕ and that this mass corresponds to the transition to a gas giant, a planet whose composition is dominated by hydrogen and helium.
