Interior models of Jupiter and Saturn are calculated and compared in the framework of the three-layer assumption, which rely on the perception that both planets consist of three globally homogeneous regions: a dense core, a metallic hydrogen envelope, and a molecular hydrogen envelope. Within this framework, constraints on the core mass and abundance of heavy elements (i.e. elements other than hydrogen and helium) are given by accounting for uncertainties on the measured gravitational moments, surface temperature, surface helium abundance, and on the inferred protosolar helium abundance, equations of state, temperature profile and solid/differential interior rotation.

  1. HD 148797: A bright F-type star with two moderate-period low-density sub-Jovian planets. Compact multi-planet architectures are common in the Neptunian savanna

    astro-ph.EP 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    HD 148797 hosts two ~40 ME, ~8.3 RE, low-density savanna planets near a 1.619 period ratio whose anti-correlated TTVs yield masses and support compact multi-planet architectures as typical in the savanna.

  2. A Full-Atmosphere Model of Jupiter

    astro-ph.EP 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A full-atmosphere Jupiter model with sulfur chemistry predicts a 33 ppb HCN peak in the stratosphere, testable by JUICE.
