Hydrogen-carbon doubly superionic conduits of carbonic acids in planetary ices.
exhibits strong anisotropic behaviors that may contribute to the nonaxisymmetric magnetic fields of ice giants. These findings further suggest that carbonic acid ices could sustain hydrogen-carbon transport, potentially enhancing convective volatile cycling in giant planet interiors.
