Giant exoplanets seem to have on average a much higher heavy-element content than the
Solar System giants. Past attempts to explain this heavy-element content include collisions …

One of the current challenges of planet formation theory is to explain the enrichment of
observed exoplanetary atmospheres. While past studies have focused on scenarios where …

The metal mass fractions of gas giants are a powerful tool for constraining their formation
mechanisms and evolution. The metal content is inferred by comparing mass and radius …

A primary goal of exoplanet science is to measure the atmospheric composition of gas
giants in order to infer their formation and migration histories. Common diagnostics for …

The recent observations on WASP-39 b by JWST have revealed hints of high metallicity
within the atmosphere compared to its host star. There are various theories on how these …

Context. With a new generation of observational instruments largely dedicated to exoplanets
(ie JWST, ELTs, PLATO, and Ariel) providing atmospheric spectra and mass and radius …

Context. Revealing the internal composition and structure of giant planets is fundamental for
understanding planetary formation. However, the bulk composition can only be inferred …

Detection of radio emission from Jupiter was identified quickly as being due to its planetary-
scale magnetic field. Subsequent spacecraft investigations have revealed that many of the …

The metal mass fractions of gas giants are a powerful tool for constraining their formation
mechanisms and evolution. The metal content is inferred by comparing mass and radius …

Studying the interiors of planets is essential to gain profound comprehension of the
processes that drive planetary formation. The present internal structures of planets reflect …
