FILES ATTACHED TO THE ARTICLE Jupiter's Interior by T. Guillot, D.J. Stevenson, W.B. Hubbard and D. Saumon in "Jupiter", eds. F. Bagenal et al. 2003 Please refer to http://www.obs-nice.fr/guillot/Jupbook for instructions, or email guillot@obs-nice.fr The directory contains the following files: README -> This file jupiter_evolution.dat -> Evolution model of Jupiter The columns are: Time(Myr), Radius (Rjup=6.9894e9cm), Intrinsic luminosity (Ljup=3.34e24erg/s), Effective temperature [K], 10bar temperature [K], intrinsic entropy [erg/g/K], test quantity jupiter_[A-F].des -> Interior models of Jupiter The columns are (in log, then linearly): Mass (Mjup=1.89861120D+30 g), Radius (Rjup=6.9894e9cm), Pressure [dyn/cm2], Temperature [K], Density [g/cm3], Rosseland opacity(*) [g/cm2], Temperature gradient dlnT/dlnP, Adiabatic gradient, Radiative gradient(*) (*): The opacities are either assumed to be arbitrarily high (adiabatic models), or represent low-limit estimates that do not include the contribution due to alkali metals (radiative models). jupiter_[A-F].zel -> Derivation of the mass of heavy elements in any given model All masses are given in Earth masses. "mol" refers to the (helium-poor) molecular region "met" refers to the (helium-rich) metallic region "env" refers to the envelope: molecular + metallic regions "tot" refers to the entire planet: molecular + metallic regions + core Yz: Equivalent helium mass mixing ratio in the molecular region (Yz~Y+Z -see Guillot et al. 1994b) DYz: Discontinuity of Yz accross the molecular/metallic transition Mcore: Mass of the core Pice: Fraction of ices in the core. 1-Pice: Fraction of rocks in the core Mmol(Mmet): Mass of the molecular(metallic) region Z: Mass mixing ratio of heavy elements MZ: Mass of heavy elements The different values of MZ derived depend on (1) the EOS for heavy elements, (2) the composition of heavy elements (e.g. rocks, or ices), (3) the atmospheric and protosolar helium mass mixing ratios (Y). readplot.pro -> IDL script that reads these files and produces simple plots. ----------------- ADOPTED CONSTANTS: Mass: Mjup= 1.89861120D+30 g Intrinsic luminosity: Ljup= 3.35000000D+24 erg/s Mean radius: Rjup= 6.98940000D+09 cm Equatorial radius: Req= 7.14920000D+09 cm Polar radius: Rpol= 6.68450200D+09 cm Rotation period: Prot= 3.57297000D+04 sec Earth mass: Mearth=5.97369000D+27 g ----------------- T.
