VizieR Online Data Catalog: Properties of massive giant planets & brown dwarfs (Becker+, 2018)

The work presented here extends the Jupiter study of French et al. (2012ApJS..202....5F). We select three objects within a mass range of 10-50 M_J from Becker et al. (2014, J/ApJS/215/21): the massive exoplanet KOI-889b, and the two brown dwarfs Corot-3b and Gliese-229b. The interior structure models of the massive giant planet KOI-889b and the brown dwarfs Corot-3b and Gliese-229b are adopted from Becker et al. (2014, J/ApJS/215/21). All these values lie within the error bars of the corresponding observational constraints as listed in Table 1. The isentropes of the three objects considered here are illustrated in Figure 1, while the thermodynamic states for selected points along the isentropes can be found in Table 2. In contrast to the thermodynamic properties, the transport properties such as the shear viscosity {eta} and the electrical and thermal conductivities σ and λ are obtained from simulating a real H-He mixture. The entire sets of transport properties along the three isentropes can be found in Table 4.
