The Role of Magmatic Styles in Planetary Thermal Evolution Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Previous studies that investigated the effects of magmatism on the interior dynamics, in particular for Earth‐sized planets, suggest that magmatism leads to more efficient mantle cooling. However, the extent to which different magmatic styles influence the thermal evolution of planets, and in particular smaller rocky bodies, has not yet been ...

Radar Observations of Europa in 2011–2024: New Insights into Radar Scattering Properties

The Planetary Science Journal
Three of Jupiter’s Galilean satellites—Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto—are of particular scientific interest due to their icy shells and suspected subsurface oceans.

Reconstructing Europa's Atmosphere From H2+ ${\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{2}}^{+}$ Pickup Ions Detected During the Juno PJ45 Flyby

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We use a suite of single‐species (H2 ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$) and multispecies (H2+O2+H+O ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}+{\mathrm{O}}_{2}+\mathrm{H}+\mathrm{O}$) Direct Simulation Monte Carlo models of Europa's atmosphere to interpret the H2+ ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}^{+}$ pickup ions detected by Juno at distances beyond 2 $2$ Europa radii RE $\left({R}_{E}\right ...

Comparing NASA Discovery and New Frontiers Class Mission Concepts for the Io Volcano Observer

The Planetary Science Journal
Jupiter’s moon Io is a highly compelling target for future exploration that offers critical insight into tidal dissipation processes and the geology of high heat flux worlds, including primitive planetary bodies, such as the early Earth, that are shaped ...

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

, 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.

Predictions of the mutual events of the Galilean Satellites of Jupiter occurring in 2002–2003

, 2002
Mutual occultations and eclipses of the Galilean satellites of Jupiter will occur in 2002–2003. This paper provides predictions of these events as well as information useful for their observations. Such events are uncommon, since they occur only every

Morpho‐structural analysis of impact craters on Pluto: Implications for the study of complex craters

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1950-1964, August 2026.
Abstract We used Pluto's global digital elevation model to automatically perform a morphometric analysis of impact craters. Triangular irregular networks (TINs) were generated for each crater, providing a detailed representation of crater topography and enabling more accurate morpho‐structural analysis. A dedicated toolkit generated radial profiles for

Landfall Reorganizes Eyewall Boundary Layer Transport and Scale Coupling in Typhoon Hato (2017)

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Landfall reorganizes the tropical cyclone eyewall boundary layer (BL) through elevated surface roughness and reduced enthalpy fluxes. Using a 100‐m resolution nested large‐eddy simulation of Typhoon Hato (2017), we compare eyewall BL structures before and during landfall.

Europa’s H2O2: Temperature Insensitivity and a Correlation with CO2

The Planetary Science Journal
H _2 O _2 is part of Europa’s water-ice radiolytic cycle and a potential source of oxidants to Europa’s subsurface ocean. However, factors controlling the concentration of this critical surface species remain unclear.
