The standard model of Uranus's structure is that it consists of three layers: a rocky (silicate/iron–nickel) core in the centre, an icy mantle in the middle, and an outer gaseous hydrogen/helium envelope.

Structure. Uranus is one of two ice giants in the outer solar system (the other is Neptune). Most (80% or more) of the planet's mass is made up of a hot dense fluid of "icy" materials – water, methane, and ammonia – above a small rocky core. Near the core, it heats up to 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit (4,982 degrees Celsius).
2 paź 2024 · Uranian Magnetosphere. Model GSFC-O 3. Dipole field strength: 0.228 Gauss-Ru 3 Dipole tilt to rotational axis: 58.6 degrees Longitude of tilt: 53.6 degrees Dipole offset: 0.352 Ru Surface (1 Ru) field strength: ~0.1 - 1.0 Gauss. Ru denotes Uranian model radius, here defined to be 25,600 km.
Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun, and it's the third largest planet in our solar system – about four times wider than Earth. Uranus is a very cold and windy planet. It is surrounded by faint rings, and more than two dozen small moons as it rotates at a nearly 90-degree angle from the plane of its orbit.
25 mar 2020 · In this review we summarize the current-knowledge about Uranus and Neptune with a focus on their composition and internal structure, formation including potential subsequent giant impacts, and thermal evolution.
1 maj 2015 · The standard model of Uranus’ structure suggests that the innermost region of the planet consists of rock (magnesium, silicon, and iron), the intermediate region consists of ice (water, methane, and ammonia), and the outermost region consists of gas (hydrogen and helium) (Podolak et al., 1991). It should be noted that “rock”, “ice ...
