The analysis of mutual phenomena of the Galilean satellites of Jupiter in 1985.

, 1987
In 1985, mutual phenomena of the Galilean satellites of Jupiter took place. At the hydrographic observatories (Bisei, Simosato and Sirahama) 14 mutual phenomena (23 light curves) were observed.

Jupiter and Its Galilean Satellites

, 2012
Jupiter is one of the two most studied planets other than Earth in our Solar System. It is the largest, fastest rotating, has the strongest magnetic field, and an incredibly diverse set of satellites, most prominent of which are the four Galilean ...

Formation and Survival of Complex Organic Molecules in the Jovian Circumplanetary Disk

The Planetary Science Journal
Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto are key targets in the search for habitability due to the potential presence of subsurface oceans. Detecting complex organic molecules (COMs), essential for prebiotic chemistry, is crucial to assessing their potential ...

Potential Cryovolcanic Regions on Ganymede: A Priority Target for JUICE

The Planetary Science Journal
One of the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission goals of the European Space Agency, launched in 2023 April, is the detailed characterization of Ganymede, Jupiter’s largest moon and a confirmed ocean world.

The Bombardment History of the Giant Planet Satellites

The Planetary Science Journal
The origins of the giant planet satellites are debated, with scenarios including formation from a protoplanetary disk, sequential assembly from massive rings, and recent accretion after major satellite–satellite collisions.

Searching for capture and escape trajectories around Jupiter using its Galilean satellites

, 2015
This paper has the goal of searching for natural trajectories that can be used for a particle or a spacecraft coming from a region of the space far from Jupiter system to be captured into this system by making close approaches with the Galilean ...

Energy and Temperature Dependencies for Electron-induced Sputtering from H2O Ice: Implications for the Icy Galilean Moons

The Planetary Science Journal
To better assess the role that electrons play in exosphere production on icy bodies, we measured the total and O _2 sputtering yields from H _2 O ice for electrons with energies between 0.75 and 10 keV and temperatures between 15 and 124.5 K.
