Electromagnetically and gravitationally and chemically they act like stars.
Gas giant simulations are often performed by stellar codes such as mesa. Stellar physics and stellar simulations with fusion turned off. Morphologically, they are stars. We should move on from the cold war brain’s fusion chauvinism.
They are fundamentally different objects than planets. They have their own planetary systems. They’re stars, just unlit.
“Y dwarf stars” are not even a thing!
Neither brown dwarfs nor planetary-mass objects are stars.
Are you just a troll?
They are!

Juno gravity results imply Jupiter’s core is dissolved hydrogen plasma sludge, also known as the dilute core model. Kronoseismology (using saturn’s rings as a seismograph; Cassini read it like a DVD) implies the same is likely true for Saturn due to the discovery of g-mode waves mixing with the f-mode signal detected by ring occultations.
Literally none of those links talk about “Y dwarf stars.”
Yep. You’re just a troll.
I wandered in here from computer science, and I’m going back to solving parallel cache coherency for a bit of light relief.
This is really fascinating! Today I learned.
You didn’t learn because none of those links were about “Y dwarf stars,” which are not a thing.
Fuck you
I’m sorry the lack of existence of Y dwarf stars makes you angry, but they still don’t exist.
