Tidal Response and Shape of Hot Jupiters

Autor: Daniel Thorngren, Tiger Lu, Burkhard Militzer, S. M. Wahl

We study the response of hot Jupiters to a static tidal perturbation using the concentric MacLaurin spheroid method. For strongly irradiated planets, we first performed radiative transfer calculations to relate the planet's equilibrium temperature, T

International audience; Jupiter’s atmosphere is rotating differentially, with zones and belts rotating at speeds that differ by up to 100 metres per second. Whether this is also true of the gas giant’s interior has been unknown1,2, limiting our a

Models of Saturn's Interior Constructed with Accelerated Concentric Maclaurin Spheroid Method

Autor: Burkhard Militzer, William B. Hubbard, S. M. Wahl

The Cassini spacecraft's Grand Finale orbits provided a unique opportunity to probe Saturn's gravity field and interior structure. Doppler measurements yielded unexpectedly large values for the gravity harmonics J_6, J_8, and J_10 that cannot be matc

This article provides an overview of how models of giant planet interiors are constructed. We review measurements from past space missions that provide constraints for the interior structure of Jupiter. We discuss typical three-layer interior models

The depth to which Jupiter’s observed east–west jet streams extend has been a long-standing question. Resolving this puzzle has been a primary goal for the Juno spacecraft, which has been in orbit around the gas giant since July 2016. Juno’s gr
