The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 In this study, we employ and modify the Lorenz energy cycle (LEC) framework as another way to understand the atmospheric circulation on tidally locked terrestrial planets. It well describes the atmospheric general circulation in the perspective of energy

Statistical Distributions of Plasma Density and Pressure in the Jovian Plasma Sheet
The Astrophysical JournalThe Jovian plasma sheet is a key region of the Jovian magnetosphere populated by a mix of warm and hot plasma. It is the main channel for radial transport of mass and energy in the Jovian magnetosphere and provides a favorable environment for magnetic ...

Dry Downhill Particle Motion on Mars
The Planetary Science JournalWe recently flew a new setup on parabolic flights for the first time to study particle motion on Martian slopes under Martian gravity. Here, we describe the initial experiments. We used dust/sand beds at varying ambient pressure of a few hundred pascals.

Long Period Seismology on Titan in the Presence of a Methane Clathrate Lid
Earth and Space SciencePrevious 1‐D spherically symmetric seismic modeling studies have shown that in the presence of a clathrate lid on Titan significant thermal profile differences result, particularly in comparison to a pure water ice shell.

Anthropic arguments outside of cosmology and string theory [PDF]
Belgrade Philosophical Annual, 2016 Anthropic reasoning has lately been strongly associated with the string theory landscape and some theories of particle cosmology, such as cosmological inflation. The association is not, contrary to multiple statements by physicists and philosophers alike,

Simultaneous Evolutionary Fits for Jupiter and Saturn Incorporating Fuzzy Cores
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWith the recent realization that there likely are stably stratified regions in the interiors of both Jupiter and Saturn, we construct new nonadiabatic, inhomogeneous evolutionary models with the same microphysics for each that result at the present time ...
