Oxygen depletion in giant planets with different formation histories

چکیده
The atmospheric C/O ratio of exoplanets is widely used to constrain their formation. To guarantee that the provides robust information, we need accurately quantify amount C and O in exoplanetary atmospheres. In case O, water carbon monoxide are generally studied as two key carriers. However, oxygen a very reactive element does not bind with carbon; depending on temperature, it also binds refractory elements. Estimating bound elements therefore critical for unbiased estimates ratio. this work, investigate deficit due its effects giant function metallicity equilibrium temperature. We model composition planetary atmospheres assuming chemical using input physically justified elemental mixtures arising from detailed planet formation simulations. Our results show how interplay between temperature non-solar abundances can sequester large fractions oxygen, introducing significant biases evaluating when effect accounted for. apply our Jupiter Solar System currently estimated abundance points true four times solar one.

Formation of giant planets in disks with different metallicities
We present the first results from simulations of processes leading to planet formation in protoplanetary disks with different metallicities. For a given metallicity, we construct a two-dimensional grid of disk models with different initial masses and radii (M0, R0). For each disk, we follow the evolution of gas and solids from an early evolutionary stage, when all solids are in the form of smal...
متن کاملFormation of Giant Planets
The observed properties of giant planets, models of their evolution and observations of protoplanetary disks provide constraints on the formation of gas giant planets. The four largest planets in our Solar System contain considerable quantities of hydrogen and helium; these gasses could not have condensed into solid planetesimals within the protoplanetary disk. Jupiter and Saturn are mostly hyd...
متن کاملCloud formation in giant planets
We calculate the formation of dust clouds in atmospheres of giant gas-planets. The chemical structure and the evolution of the grain size distribution in the dust cloud layer is discussed based on a consistent treatment of seed formation, growth/evaporation and gravitational settling. Future developments are shortly addressed.
متن کاملFormation of the Giant Planets?
Observational constraints on interior models of the giant planets indicate that these planets were all much hotter when they formed and they all have rock and/or ice cores of ten to thirty earth masses. These cores are probably soluble in the envelopes above, especially in Jupiter and Saturn, and are therefore likely to be primordial. They persist despite the continual upward mixing by thermall...
متن کاملRapid Formation of Ice Giant Planets
The existence of Uranus and Neptune presents severe difficulties for the core accretion model for the formation of ice giant planets. We suggest an alternative mechanism, namely disk instability leading to the formation of gas giant protoplanets, coagulation and settling of dust grains to form ice/rock cores at their centers, and photoevaporation of their gaseous envelopes by a nearby OB star, ...
