Relation of Gravity, Winds, and the Moment of Inertia of Jupiter and Saturn
We study the relationship of zonal gravity coefficients, J _2 _n , zonal winds, and axial moment of inertia (MoI) by constructing models for the interiors of giant planets. We employ the nonperturbative concentric Maclaurin spheroid method to construct both physical (realistic equation of state and...
