The Interior of Saturn
A source of uncertainty in Saturn interior models is the lack of a unique rotation rate to be ascribed to the deep (metallic-hydrogen) interior. As a result, models are not uniquely constrained by…

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…
Signature of helium rain and dilute cores in Jupiter's interior from empirical equations of state

Measurements of Jupiter's gravity field by Juno have been acquired with unprecedented precision, but uncertainties in the planet’s hydrogen–helium equation of state (EOS) and the hydrogen–helium…
Jupiter internal structure: the effect of different equations of state
Heavy elements, even though its smaller constituent, are crucial to understand Jupiter formation history. Interior models are used to determine the amount of heavy elements in Jupiter interior,…
Jupiter’s formation and its primordial internal structure
The composition of Jupiter and the primordial distribution of the heavy elements are determined by its formation history. As a result, in order to constrain the primordial internal structure of…
Models and theoretical spectrum for the free oscillations of Saturn
We constructed new models of Saturn with an allowance made for a helium mass fraction of ∼0.18–0.25 in its atmosphere. Our modeling shows that the composition of Saturn differs markedly from the…

Context. The Juno spacecraft has significantly improved the accuracy of low-order even gravitational harmonics. It has been demonstrated that a dilute core is helpful to interpret Juno’s gravity…
Astrophysical Implications of the Recent Shocked Deuterium Experiments
In the last few years, deuterium has been the focus of a high level of laboratory activity that was sparked by a disagreement on the experimental value of the maximum compression along the…
