Schematic diagram showing the three stages of cooling from Bondi radius delaminations. In (a), the planet forms a Bondi radius boundary layer of thickness ∆RB with a temperature contrast ∆TB

Binary collision-induced H2–He absorption coefficient, α, normalized by the hydrogen and helium gas densities, as function of frequency in the fundamental band, at 296 K. The parato-ortho distribution, is representative
