Composition and fate of short-period super-Earths: The case of CoRoT-7b
The discovery of CoRoT-7b, a planet of radius 1.68 +/- 0.09 R_E, mass 4.8 +/- 0.8 M_E and orbital period of 0.854 days demonstrates that small planets can orbit extremely close to their star. We use…

COMPOSITIONAL DIVERSITY IN THE ATMOSPHERES OF HOT NEPTUNES, WITH APPLICATION TO GJ 436b
TLDR
The predicted equilibrium and disequilibrium chemistry of generic hot Neptunes is explored and it is concluded that although the spectral fit from the high-metallicity forward models is not quite as good as the best fit obtained from pure retrieval methods, the atmospheric composition predicted is more physically and chemically plausible in terms of the relative abundance of major constituents.

AB INITIO SIMULATIONS FOR MATERIAL PROPERTIES ALONG THE JUPITER ADIABAT
We determine basic thermodynamic and transport properties of hydrogen–helium–water mixtures for the extreme conditions along Jupiter's adiabat via ab initio simulations, which are compiled in an…

Ab Initio Equation of State Data for Hydrogen, Helium, and Water and the Internal Structure of Jupiter
The equation of state of hydrogen, helium, and water affects interior structure models of giant planets significantly. We present a new equation of state data table, LM-REOS, generated by large-scale…

SELF-CONSISTENT MODEL ATMOSPHERES AND THE COOLING OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM'S GIANT PLANETS
We compute grids of radiative–convective model atmospheres for Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune over a range of intrinsic fluxes and surface gravities. The atmosphere grids serve as an upper…

JUPITER MODELS WITH IMPROVED AB INITIO HYDROGEN EQUATION OF STATE (H-REOS.2)
The amount and distribution of heavy elements in Jupiter gives indications on the process of its formation and evolution. Core mass and metallicity predictions, however, depend on the equations of…

The Interior Structure, Composition, and Evolution of Giant Planets
We discuss our current understanding of the interior structure and thermal evolution of giant planets. This includes the gas giants, such as Jupiter and Saturn, that are primarily composed of…
