Dramatic Change in Jupiter ’ s Great Red Spot
Introduction: Jupiter’s Great Red Spot (GRS) is one of its most distinct and enduring features, having been continuously observed since the 1800’s. It currently spans the smallest latitude and longitude size ever recorded. Here we show analyses of 2014 Hubble spectral imaging data to study the color, structure and internal dynamics of this long-live storm. Physical Dimensions: The GRS’s red edg...
متن کاملEmergence of intense jets and Jupiter Great Red Spot as maximum entropy structures
We explain the emergence and robustness of intense jets in highly turbulent planetary atmospheres, like on Jupiter, by a general approach of statistical mechanics of potential vorticity patches. The idea is that potential vorticity mixing leads to the formation of a steady organized coarse grained flow, corresponding to the statistical equilibrium state. Our starting point is the quasi-geostrop...
متن کاملJupiter’s Red Spot
The Great Red Spot, the largest of Jupiter’s long lived, approximately two dimensional, coherent vortices, measures approximately 26, 000 × 13, 000 km in the horizontal direction and is assumed to be roughly 20-40 km deep. Previous studies, including laboratory experiments and numerical simulations, suggest that many of the important characteristics of Jovian vortices can be explained through q...
متن کاملGeneralized thermodynamics and Fokker - Planck equations . Applications to stellar dynamics , two - dimensional turbulence and Jupiter ’ s great red spot
We introduce a new set of generalized Fokker-Planck equations that conserve energy and mass and increase a generalized entropy until a maximum entropy state is reached. The concept of generalized entropies is rigorously justified for continuous Hamiltonian systems undergoing violent relaxation. Tsallis entropies are just a special case of this generalized thermodynamics. Application of these re...
متن کاملPhase separation of bacterial colonies in a limit of high degradation . Analogy with Jupiter ’ s great red spot
We discuss the structure of the equilibrium states of a regularized Keller-Segel model describing the chemotaxis of bacterial populations. We consider the limit of high degradation of the secreted chemical where analytical results can be obtained. Below a critical effective temperature, the system experiences a second order phase transition from a homogeneous phase to an inhomogeneous phase for...
