Can Jupiter's Atmospheric Metallicity Be Different from the Deep Interior?
Updated formation and structure models of Jupiter predict a metal-poor envelope. This is at
odds with the two to three times solar metallicity measured by the Galileo probe …

Evolution of Semiconvective Staircases in Rotating Flows: Consequences for Fuzzy Cores in Giant Planets
Recent observational constraints on the internal structure of Jupiter and Saturn suggest that
these planets have" fuzzy" cores, ie, gradients of the concentration of heavy elements that …

Convective mixing in distant and close-in giant planets-Dependences on the initial composition, luminosity, bloating, and semi-convection
J Polman, C Mordasini - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2024 - aanda.org
Recent structure models of Jupiter suggest the existence of an extended region in the deep
interior with a high heavy element abundance, referred to as a dilute core. This finding has …

Shadowgraph measurements of rotating convective planetary core‐style flows
JA Abbate, JM Aurnou - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
The local scale of rotating convection, ℓ, is a fundamental parameter in many turbulent
geophysical and astrophysical fluid systems, yet it is often poorly constrained. Here we …
