Recent laboratory and observational data support the hypothesis that the composition of Jupiter's atmosphere is consistent with the relative abundances of the elements found in the sun. A model based on this assumption provides a reasonable interpretation of abundances of hydrogen and other gases obtained from studies of various regions of the planet's spectrum. Two presently unidentified absorptions may be caused by organic molecules in the Jovian atmosphere.
最近的实验室和观测数据支持这样一种假设,即木星大气的组成与太阳中发现的元素的相对丰度一致。基于这一假设的模型为从行星光谱的各个区域研究中获得的氢和其他气体的丰度提供了合理的解释。目前两个尚未确定的吸收可能是由木星大气中的有机分子引起的。
