Atmosphere of Jupiter hydrogen sulfide (HS), ammonia (NH) and phosphine (PH). Their abundances in the deep (below 10 bar) troposphere imply that the atmosphere of Jupiter is enriched in the elements carbon, nitrogen, sulfur and possibly oxygen by factor of 2–4 relative to the Sun. The noble gases argon, krypton and xenon also appear in abundance relative to solar levels (see table), while neon is scarcer. Other chemical compounds such as arsine (AsH) and germane (GeH) are present only in trace amounts. The upper atmosphere of Jupiter contains small amounts of simple hydrocarbons such as ethane, acetylene, and diacetylene, which form from methane
An Experimental Enquiry Concerning the Source of the Heat which is Excited by Friction An Experimental Enquiry Concerning the Source of the Heat which is Excited by Friction "An Experimental Enquiry Concerning the Source of the Heat which is Excited by Friction" (1798), which was published in the "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society", is a scientific paper by Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumford that provided a substantial challenge to established theories of heat and began the 19th century revolution in thermodynamics. Rumford was an opponent of the caloric theory of heat which held that heat was a fluid that could be neither created nor destroyed. He had further developed the view that all gases
