Density, pressure, and temperature profiles for the four Uranus models. Top: density versus normalised radius. For comparison, also shown are empirical solutions from Neuenschwander & Helled (2022) (grey area). The panel in the top right shows Uranus’ measured (French et al. 2024, black) and calculated (coloured) gravitational moments. We also show Uranus’ gravitational moments according to Jacobson & Park (2025) (grey) who find different results (COR vs COO) corresponding to different ring centre definitions. The coloured uncertainties depict estimated errors from the Theory of Figures. Bottom: temperature versus pressure. Also shown is the predicted region of ionic water inferred by Redmer et al. (2011). The dashed lines show the demixing line, below which hydrogen, helium, and water are expected to become immiscible (Howard et al. 2025).
