Planetary Interior in the Laboratory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In the three years of this project, we have provided a complete database of the electrical conductivity of planetary materials to 180 GPa. The electrical conductivities of these planetary materials now provide a basis for future modeling of planets taking into account full magnetohydrodynamics.

Fluid Dynamics Experiments for Planetary Interiors [PDF]

open access: yesSurveys in Geophysics, 2021
AbstractUnderstanding fluid flows in planetary cores and subsurface oceans, as well as their signatures in available observational data (gravity, magnetism, rotation, etc.), is a tremendous interdisciplinary challenge. In particular, it requires understanding the fundamental fluid dynamics involving turbulence and rotation at typical scales well beyond

The Discovery of a Planetary Companion Interior to Hot Jupiter WASP-132 b

open access: yes, 2023
Hot Jupiters are generally observed to lack close planetary companions, a trend that has been interpreted as evidence for high-eccentricity migration. We present the discovery and validation of WASP-132 c (TOI-822.02), a 1.85 ± 0.10 R ⊕

Erosion rate and previous extent of interior layered deposits on Mars revealed by obstructed landslides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We describe interior layered deposits on Mars that have obstructed landslides before undergoing retreat by as much as 2 km. These landslides differ from typical Martian examples in that their toe height increases by as much as 500 m in a distinctive ...

Interior Characterization in Multiplanetary Systems: TRAPPIST-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Interior characterization traditionally relies on individual planetary properties, ignoring correlations between different planets of the same system. For multi-planetary systems, planetary data are generally correlated. This is because, the differential

A High-pressure Filled Ice in the H2O–CO2–CH4 System, with Possible Consequences for the CO2–CH4 Biosignature Pair

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Here we constrain the speciation of carbon that may outgas in ocean exoplanets. Ocean exoplanets likely have at least a few percent by mass of water, which is sufficient to build a high-pressure ice layer between a rocky interior and the outer ...

Orbital dynamics of high area-to-mass ratio spacecraft with J2 and solar radiation pressure for novel Earth observation and communication services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper investigates the effect of planetary oblateness and solar radiation pressure on the orbits of high area-to-mass spacecraft. A planar Hamiltonian model shows the existence of equilibrium orbits with the orbit apogee pointing towards or away ...

Evolution of a Water-rich Atmosphere Formed by a Giant Impact on an Earth-sized Planet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The atmosphere of a terrestrial planet that is replenished with secondary gases should have accumulated hydrogen-rich gas from its protoplanetary disk.

An Object‐Oriented Bayesian Gravity Inversion Scheme for Inferring Density Anomalies in Planetary Interiors

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
Gravity inversions have contributed greatly to our knowledge of the interior of planetary bodies and the processes that shaped them. However, previous global gravity inversion methods neglect the inference of mantle density anomalies when using ...
