Equation of state for metallic hydrogen and atomic helium and the interior of Jupiter and Saturn
- 1. Odesa State Academy of Cold, Odesa (Ukraine)
Description
An equation of state for a mixture of metallic hydrogen and atomic helium has been proposed. The applicability of the polytropic sphere model for the simulation of Jupiter's and Saturn's internal structures has been analyzed, and a specific value for the polytropic index has been proposed. The density, pressure, and temperature on Jupiter and Saturn as functions of the distance from the planet center have been found. Possible fractions of hydrogen and helium in the planet composition have been estimated.
