Journal ArticleDOI

Geodesy constraints on the interior structure and composition of Mars

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the moment of inertia and tidal Love number k2 to infer the interior structure of the Mars, which is the most prominent interior structure properties of the core, solid or liquid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water-rich planets: How habitable is a water layer deeper than on Earth?

TL;DR: In this article, a new ocean model was developed that is coupled with a thermal evolution model of the mantle and core of a water-rich super-Earth-size planet, and a new habitability classification was introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

The interior structure of Mercury and its core sulfur content

TL;DR: In this paper, depth-dependent interior structure models of Mercury are calculated for several plausible chemical compositions of the core and of the mantle, and the expected precision on the moment of inertia is estimated to a precision of about 50 km.
