The Evolution of Jupiter and Saturn as a Function of the Rρ Parameter
Computed using the APPLE planetary evolution code, we present updated evolutionary models for Jupiter and Saturn that incorporate helium rain, nonadiabatic thermal structures, and “fuzzy” extended heavy-element cores.

We study how stably stratified or semiconvective layers alter tidal dissipation rates associated with the generation of inertial, gravito-inertial, interfacial, and surface gravity waves in rotating giant planets.

Oleoscopicity and Organic Deliquescence of Hydrophobic Compounds Under a Hydrocarbon Atmosphere
Hydrophobic compounds can acquire hydrocarbon vapor from organic‐enriched atmospheres and may deliquesce by dissolving completely in the acquired solvent. We report trends in oleoscopicity for a variety of organic compounds under an atmosphere of n‐hexane as a model hydrocarbon solvent. ABSTRACT This paper examines the acquisition of organic solvent by

On the interaction between embedded planets and the corotation region of protoplanetary discs [PDF]
PhDDisc material in the corotation region librates with respect to low-mass planets on horseshoe trajectories. The exchange of angular momentum associated with this libration gives rise to the non-linear corotation torque (the horseshoe drag).

Tidal Dissipation in Stratified and Semi-convective Regions of Giant Planets
We study how stably stratified or semi-convective layers alter the tidal dissipation rates associated with the generation of internal waves in planetary interiors.

ABSTRACT Lightweight metallic materials with high irradiation tolerance are essential for aerospace systems operating in extreme irradiation environments. However, the irradiation behavior of particle‐reinforced aluminum matrix composites and underlying irradiation damage mechanisms remain insufficiently understood.

Isotopic ratios D/H and ¹⁵ N/¹⁴N in giant planets
The determination of isotopic ratios in planets is important since it allows us to investigate the origins and initial composition of materials. The present work aims to determine the possible range of values for isotopic ratios D/H and ¹⁵N/¹⁴N in giant ...

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Propagation and Transmission of Jupiter’s Internal Waves
Observations from the Juno spacecraft show that Jupiter has a large dilute core rather than a compact core. To investigate the effects of different core structures on wave propagation and transmission in Jupiter’s interior, we consider three models: (1 ...

We report direct observational evidence for a latitudinal dependence of dust cloud opacity in ultracool dwarfs, indicating that equatorial latitudes are cloudier than polar latitudes.
