Key Atmospheric Signatures for Identifying the Source Reservoirs of Volatiles in Uranus and Neptune [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2020 We investigate the enrichment patterns of several delivery scenarios of the volatiles to the atmospheres of ice giants, having in mind that the only well constrained determination made remotely, namely the carbon abundance measurement, suggests that ...

Effect of non-adiabatic thermal profiles on the inferred compositions of Uranus and Neptune [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 It has been a common assumption of interior models that the outer planets of our solar system are convective, and that the internal temperature distributions are therefore adiabatic. This assumption is also often applied to exoplanets.

Pitch-angle diffusion coefficients from resonant interactions with electrostatic electron cyclotron harmonic waves in planetary magnetospheres [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2011 Pitch-angle diffusion coefficients have been calculated for resonant interaction with electrostatic electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves in the magnetospheres of Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

, 2021 The two icy giant planets, Uranus and Neptune, offer a wide population of icy moons and rings of great interest for the planetary geologist. Among moons, Miranda has a very rough surface, peculiar for such a small moon. Triton is characterized by the presence of active geysers on the south polar region and by a tenuous atmosphere made of nitrogen and ...

Constraining the depth of the winds on Uranus and Neptune via Ohmic dissipation [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 Determining the depth of atmospheric winds in the outer planets of the Solar system is a key topic in planetary science. We provide constraints on these depths in Uranus and Neptune via the total induced Ohmic dissipation, due to the interaction of the

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 In situ exploration of Uranus has been limited to a single flyby encounter by the Voyager 2 spacecraft in January 1986. Nonetheless, new investigation has led to significant questions about the origin of energetic ions observed in the region between its ...

Strong Tidal Dissipation at Uranus?
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 Geophysical estimates of paleo heat fluxes on the Uranian moons Miranda and Ariel are in the range of 25–75 mW m ^−2 . For a canonical Uranus dissipation factor Q = 18,000, expected equilibrium tidal heating rates for these satellites are less than 6 mW ...
