The Role of Planetary Rotation in Polar Cusp Localization
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract Juno observations have revealed that Jupiter's polar cusps are displaced toward dusk and even the nightside, contradicting the Earth‐derived paradigm that is confined to narrower ranges near noon. These findings underscore the overlooked influence of planetary rotation on magnetospheric dynamics, exposing a critical gap in current theoretical ...

Fluctuating Interfaces in Barotropic Beta‐Plane Turbulence
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Zonal jets manifest themselves as bands with sharp interfaces in the vorticity configuration. We develop an algorithm to track these fluctuating vorticity interfaces and systematically investigate their characteristic spatio‐temporal behaviors.

Reassessing planetary composition: Evidence of rock-dominated envelopes in Uranus and Neptune
Astronomy & AstrophysicsAlthough Uranus and Neptune are commonly classified as ice giants, their exact compositions remain poorly constrained. Recent studies of outer Solar System bodies challenge the traditional view that these planets are primarily ice-dominated, suggesting ...

Is the Uranus Heat Flow Puzzling?
Geophysical Research LettersThe low internal heat flow of Uranus has been confirmed and determined for the first time. It may be representative of the average rather than a fluctuation due to the unusual seasonal or condensation cycles. The very different value for Neptune suggests

Bulk composition of the transiting hot Neptune around GJ 436
, 2008 International audienceThe hot Neptune orbiting around GJ 436 is a unique example of an intermediate mass planet. Its close-in orbit suggests that the planet has undergone migration and its study is fundamental to understand planet formation and evolution.

Neptune Atmospheric Retrograde Orbiter – A Mission to Neptune and Its Moons
The Neptune Atmospheric Retrograde Orbiter (NEPARO) mission concept foresees a large-scale interplanetary science mission to the outer solar system, namely Neptune with its system of rings and moons.
