We use two Jupiter models, both of which contain a rocky core, an ice mantle, and a hydrogen-rich envelope. One of the models incorporates the 'plasma phase transition' of hydrogen, a first-order phase transition that yields a density discontinuity in the hydrogen-rich envelope. Our calculations of the acoustic oscillation spectrum of Jupiter have taken account of the effects of the rapid rotation of the planet: the Coriolis force, centrifugal force, and deformation of the equilibrium state. The p-mode frequency spectra of the Jupiter models are summarized in several echelle diagrams. We show that the frequency spectra of the low-degree p-modes are strongly affected by the existence of the rocky core and by avoided crossings among high radial-order p-modes with different l's.
