Jovian Planets

• rings not seen

• very, very gigantic

• Cores: metal, rock, hydrogen compounds

JJupiter• ball of gas Hydrogen, Helium

• 5th planet

• Biggest planet

• Stormy, Thick clouds

• 64 moons

• Great red spot storm 300 yrs.

• thin, narrow ring, not seenhttp://burro.astr.cwru.edu/stu/media/jupiter.jpg

Saturn• rings thin, wide rock, dust, ice: frozen gas • 2nd largest • 6th planet• 62 moons

The formation of the Jovian planets:

• microscopic

• Frost LineCooler temp.

• Condensation• Hydrogen, Helium• Collide

Accretion

begin to clump.

• hydrogen and helium

These clumps accrete more.

• Condensing of ices• grow in size

Clumps form planetesimals

• larger, gravity is stronger.
