Impact of Jupiter’s Heating and Self-shadowing on the Jovian Circumplanetary Disk Structure
Deciphering the structure of the circumplanetary disk (CPD) that surrounded Jupiter at the end of its formation is key to understanding how the Galilean moons formed. Three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations have shown that this disk was optically thick and significantly heated to very high temper...
