Modeling of a two-phase system with phase change, applications in planetology: Earth's inner core and Transneptunian objects

Abstract: <p><strong>1. Introduction</strong></p> <p>We are interested in systems where two phases coexist: a solid phase with a high effective viscosity, and a low-viscosity liquid phase which fills the porosity of the solid phase. Two-phase systems, or "mush", are common in planetary sciences: magma extraction, Earth's inner core, icy moons... On terrestrial or icy bodies, such biphasic layers can compact under their own weight, wh… Show more
