The far-ultraviolet main auroral emission at Jupiter – Part 1: Dawn–dusk brightness asymmetries [PDF]
The main auroral emission at Jupiter generally appears as a quasi-closed curtain centered around the magnetic pole. This auroral feature, which accounts for approximately half of the total power emitted by the aurorae in the ultraviolet range, is ...

The presence of large sunspots near the central solar meridian at the times of major geomagnetic storms [PDF]
A further study is made of the validity of a technique developed by the authors to identify historical occurrences of intense geomagnetic storms, which is based on finding approximately coincident observations of sunspots and aurorae recorded in East ...

Sporadic aurorae observed in East Asia [PDF]
All the accessible auroral observations recorded in Chinese and Japanese histories during the interval AD 1840–1911 are investigated in detail. Most of these auroral records have never been translated into a Western language before.

Io’s Optical Aurorae in Jupiter’s Shadow
Decline and recovery timescales surrounding eclipse are indicative of the controlling physical processes in Io’s atmosphere. Recent studies have established that the majority of Io’s molecular atmosphere, SO _2 and SO, condenses during its passage ...

The Optical Aurorae of Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto
The tenuous atmospheres of the Galilean satellites are sourced from their surfaces and produced by a combination of plasma-surface interactions and thermal processes. Even though they are thin, these atmospheres can be studied via their auroral emissions,

Letter to the Editor
Two early observations of aurora at low latitudes [PDF]
It is the purpose of this paper to present evidence concerning the observation of aurorae in the years 880 AD and 942 AD recorded by Arabs from the Iberian Peninsula and the north of Africa.Key words. Meteorology and atmospheric dynamics (general

This deliverable describes the development process and initial release version of the AURORA app, which will be used by citizens to track their energy behaviour. It is already available on TestFlight (Apple) and will be released to the Appstore after key discussions about some features have been concluded within the consortium (Section 1).

Some early descriptions of aurorae in China [PDF]
Eight accounts from ancient Chinese literature have been found that describe phenomena in contexts and in metaphors that are distinctly auroral. These accounts relate to personages purported to have lived in the third millennium B.C.

Auroras on Planets around Pulsars
The first extrasolar planets were discovered serendipitously, by finding the slight variation in otherwise highly regular timing of the pulses, caused by the planets orbiting a millisecond pulsar.

The far-ultraviolet main auroral emission at Jupiter – Part 2: Vertical emission profile [PDF]
The aurorae at Jupiter are made up of many different features associated with a variety of generation mechanisms. The main auroral emission, also known as the main oval, is the most prominent of them as it accounts for approximately half of the total ...
