Mars' Hemispheric Magnetic Field From a Full‐Sphere Dynamo

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Seismic measurements from the NASA Mars InSight mission revealed that Mars' core has a relatively low density, implying a larger fraction of lighter elements than previously thought, which further leads to a low melting temperature.

Long extra-tropical planetary wave propagation in the presence of slowly varying mean flow and bottom topography. II: ray propagation and comparison with observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Ray theory is used to predict phase and group velocities for long planetary waves under realistic, albeit slowly varying, oceanic conditions. The results are compared with local theory using fields smoothed to the same amount (9° latitude/longitude) as ...

Asteroseismic Characterization of 142 Solar-like Oscillators Hosting Confirmed Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present the largest catalog of exoplanet host stars with solar-like oscillations compiled to date, providing a powerful resource for refining stellar and planetary characterization via asteroseismology.

A remnant planetary core in the hot-Neptune desert

open access: yes, 2020
The interiors of giant planets remain poorly understood. Even for the planets in the Solar System, difficulties in observation lead to large uncertainties in the properties of planetary cores.

High pressure studies of planetary matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Those materials which are of greatest interest to the physics of the deep planetary interiors are Fe, H/sub 2/, He and the Ices. These are sufficiently diverse and intensively studied to offer an overview of present day high pressure research.

Puzzles in Planetary Dynamos: Implications for Planetary Interiors

open access: yesAnnual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences
Intrinsic magnetic fields were once commonplace across our Solar System, and many planetary bodies have sustained active dynamos to the present day. The nature and behavior of these dynamos vary widely, however, reflecting the diverse internal conditions of planets as summarized in this review.

The Fuzzy Cores of Jupiter and Saturn

open access: yesAGU Advances
New interior models of Jupiter and Saturn suggest that both planets have “fuzzy cores.” These cores should be viewed as central regions that are enriched with heavy elements but are not distinct from the rest of the deep interior. These cores may contain

Igneous processes in the small bodies of the Solar System II: Small satellites and dwarf planets

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Evidence of hot and cold igneous processes has been reported in small satellites and dwarf planets of the Solar System. Olivine and pyroxenes were detected in the spectral bands of both small satellites and dwarf planets.

Effects of magmatic styles on the thermal evolution of planetary interiors [PDF]

open access: yes
Previous studies have suggested that extrusive magmatism efficiently cools planetary interiors but the contribution by intrusive magmatism has been little investigated so far. We study the effects of the magmatic style (i.e., intrusive vs.

JWST Exoplanetary Worlds and Elemental Survey (JEWELS). I. High-precision Chemical Abundances of 20 FGK Planet-hosting Stars from JWST Cycle 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present high-precision chemical abundances for 20 FGK stars hosting planets observed in JWST Cycle 2 GO programs. Using high-resolution, high-signal-to-noise ratio spectra from the ESO and Keck archives, we perform a strict line-by-line differential ...
