Giant Planets
Tristan Guillot (LAGRANGE), Daniel Gautier (LESIA)
TL;DR
This review comprehensively discusses the interior structure, atmospheric composition, oscillations, and evolution of solar system giant planets and exoplanets, highlighting recent advances and their implications for planetary science.
Contribution
It provides updated insights into giant planet compositions, oscillation discoveries, and high-pressure material behavior, connecting solar system planets with exoplanet trends.
Findings
New discussion on atmospheric compositions
Discovery of oscillations in Jupiter and Saturn
Improved understanding of high-pressure material behavior
Abstract
We review the interior structure and evolution of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, and giant exoplanets with particular emphasis on constraining their global composition. Compared to the first edition of this review, we provide a new discussion of the atmospheric compositions of the solar system giant planets, we discuss the discovery of oscillations of Jupiter and Saturn, the significant improvements in our understanding of the behavior of material at high pressures and the consequences for interior and evolution models. We place the giant planets in our Solar System in context with the trends seen for exoplanets.
