Onset of Convection in Rotating Spherical Shells: Variations With Radius Ratio

Earth and Space Science, 2023
Convection in rotating spherical layers of fluid is ubiquitous in spherical astrophysical objects like planets and stars. A complete understanding of the magnetohydrodynamics requires understanding of the linear problem—when convection onsets in these ...

Using magnetic fluids to simulate convection in a central force field in the laboratory [PDF]

Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2005
Large-scale convection in planetary or stellar interiors plays a significant role but it is difficult to reproduce the central force field of those systems in experimental studies.

X-ray scattering measurements of dissociation-induced metallization of dynamically compressed deuterium

Nature Communications, 2016
High-pressure experiments play a critical role in understanding planetary interiors, but are notoriously difficult to carry out. Here, the authors demonstrate a laboratory platform for the controlled exploration of deuterium, with results that challenge ...

Laboratory Models of Planetary Core-Style Convective Turbulence

Fluids, 2023
The connection between the heat transfer and characteristic flow velocities of planetary core-style convection remains poorly understood. To address this, we present novel laboratory models of rotating Rayleigh–Bénard convection in which heat and ...

Laser-driven shock compression of “synthetic planetary mixtures” of water, ethanol, and ammonia

Scientific Reports, 2019
Water, methane, and ammonia are commonly considered to be the key components of the interiors of Uranus and Neptune. Modelling the planets’ internal structure, evolution, and dynamo heavily relies on the properties of the complex mixtures with uncertain ...

Planetary Interiors

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1985
The effective definition of a planet is a body too small to sustain nuclear reactions in its interior, but large enough that its thermal decay time is more than five billion years, the age of the solar system. By this definition, there are fifteen planets in the solar system: all the conventional planets but Pluto plus the seven large satellites.

Magnetic Fields of Extrasolar Planets: Planetary Interiors and Habitability

, 2019
Jupiter's radio emission has been linked to its planetary-scale magnetic field, and spacecraft investigations have revealed that most planets, and some moons, have or had a global magnetic field.

Pluto's Antipodal Terrains Imply a Thick Subsurface Ocean and Hydrated Core

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
Recent analysis of New Horizons data revealed an ∼1,000‐km‐diameter region of large‐scale lineations antipodal to Sputnik Planitia, the 1,200 × 2,000 km elliptical impact basin on Pluto's anti‐Charon hemisphere.
