摘要:

用第一性原理分子动力学模拟计算了中温(4000 ~ 10000 K)和Mbar压力下氢氦混合气体的性质.我们确定的状态方程作为密度,温度和组成的函数,并使用热力学积分,我们估计混合的吉布斯自由能,从而确定温度,在给定的压力下,当氦变得不溶于致密的金属氢。这些结果与类木行星的内部结构和演化模型直接相关。我们发现,氦和氢的分层温度足够高,可以在5毫巴左右的压力下穿过土星的行星环;氦在土星内部的很大一部分是部分混溶的,在木星中的程度较小。

英文摘要:

The properties of hydrogen-helium mixtures at Mbar pressures and intermediate temperatures (4000 to 10000 K) are calculated with first-principles molecular dynamics simulations. We determine the equation of state as a function of density, temperature, and composition and, using thermodynamic integration, we estimate the Gibbs free energy of mixing, thereby determining the temperature, at a given pressure, when helium becomes insoluble in dense metallic hydrogen. These results are directly relevant to models of the interior structure and evolution of Jovian planets. We find that the temperatures for the demixing of helium and hydrogen are sufficiently high to cross the planetary adiabat of Saturn at pressures around 5 Mbar; helium is partially miscible throughout a significant portion of the interior of Saturn, and to a lesser extent in Jupiter.
