Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Energetic Charged Particle Fluxes Relevant to Ganymede's Polar Region

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
The JEDI instrument made measurements of energetic charged particles near Ganymede during a close encounter with that moon. Here we find ion flux levels are similar close to Ganymede itself but outside its magnetosphere and on near wake and open field ...

Invariant Manifolds, the Spatial Three-Body Problem and Space Mission Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The invariant manifold structures of the collinear libration points for the spatial restricted three-body problem provide the framework for understanding complex dynamical phenomena from a geometric point of view.

Ocean dynamics of outer solar system satellites

open access: yes, 2019
Ocean worlds are prevalent in the solar system. Focusing on Enceladus, Titan, Europa, and Ganymede, I use rotating convection theory and numerical simulations to predict ocean currents and the potential for ice-ocean coupling.

Towards More Accessible and More Inclusive PrEP to Break the Cycle of HIV in France

open access: yesJournal of the International AIDS Society, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) represents a major advance in HIV prevention, but its rollout in France remains limited, particularly among women, migrants and socially vulnerable populations. Despite full reimbursement by the national health system, oral PrEP is still rarely prescribed outside hospital settings, hindered by ...

Design of a Multi-Moon Orbiter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The Multi-Moon Orbiter concept is introduced, wherein a single spacecraft orbits several moons of Jupiter, allowing long duration observations. The ΔV requirements for this mission can be low if ballistic captures and resonant gravity assists by ...

Impact-Generated Dust Clouds Surrounding the Galilean Moons

open access: yes, 2003
Tenuous dust clouds of Jupiter's Galilean moons Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto have been detected with the in-situ dust detector on board the Galileo spacecraft.

Forward and Adjoint Calculations of Gravitational Potential in Heterogeneous, Aspherical Planets

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We have developed a computational package for the calculation of numerically exact internal and external gravitational potential, its functional derivatives and sensitivity kernels, in an aspherical, heterogeneous planet. We detail our implementation, utilizing a transformation of the Poisson equation into a spherical reference domain, as well

Three-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Periodic Variations of Ganymede’s Footprint

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Alfvénic power is generated through the interaction between the mini-magnetosphere of Ganymede and the corotating flow of the Jovian plasma, contributing to the formation of the Ganymede auroral footprint at Jupiter’s ionosphere.

The formation of the Galilean moons and Titan in the Grand Tack scenario

open access: yes, 2015
In the Grand Tack (GT) scenario for the young solar system, Jupiter formed beyond 3.5 AU from the Sun and migrated as close as 1.5 AU until it encountered an orbital resonance with Saturn.
