Composition of massive giant planets [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010 AbstractThe two current models for giant planet formation are core accretion and disk instability. We discuss the core masses and overall planetary enrichment in heavy elements predicted by the two formation models, and show that both models could lead to a large range of final compositions.

The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 The tumultuous early era of outer solar system evolution culminated when Neptune migrated across the primordial Kuiper Belt (PKB) and triggered a dynamical instability among the giant planets.

Masses and Densities of Dwarf Planet Satellites Measured with ALMA
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 We have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array to measure precise absolute astrometric positions and detect the astrometric wobble of dwarf planet Orcus and its satellite Vanth over a complete orbit.

Bismuthene Under Cover: Graphene Intercalation of a Large Gap Quantum Spin Hall Insulator
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Bismuthene, a quantum spin Hall insulator with a massive 800 meV topological gap, holds great potential for room‐temperature devices but rapidly degrades in air. This study demonstrates that intercalating bismuthene between SiC and a graphene sheet preserves its structure and topology while preventing oxidation, enabling ex‐situ experiments and ...

Discovery and Dynamics of the Nontransiting Planet Kepler-139f
The Astrophysical Journal LettersAmong the ways that an outer giant planet can alter the architecture of an inner planetary system is by tilting the orbits of the inner planets and reducing their mutual transit probabilities.

A Massive Hot Jupiter Orbiting a Metal-rich Early M Star Discovered in the TESS Full-frame Images
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems has remained under debate for decades. With the help of the TESS mission and ground-

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study reveals how LiBH4 doping in argyrodite‐type Li6PS5Cl solid‐state electrolyte improves electrochemical stability by forming a tri‐layer SEI based predominately on Li3P/LiBH4/Li2S that promotes ion transport and blocks electrons. In situ XPS and TOF‐SIMS show thinner SEI, enhanced Li electrodeposition, and better interfacial wetting compared ...

Moist Convection in the Giant Planet Atmospheres
Remote Sensing, 2022 The outer planets of our Solar System display a myriad of interesting cloud features, of different colors and sizes. The differences between the types of observed clouds suggest a complex interplay between the dynamics and chemistry at play in these ...

Formation of Giant Planets [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2004 This is a descriptive and non‐mathematical summary of giant planet formation theories. There are two end‐member models, core accretion and disk instability. In the core accretion model, several to ten Earth masses of solid (ice and rock) accumulate and this promotes subsequent gas accretion.
