Impact-induced Contamination of Ganymede’s Deep Ice Shell

The Planetary Science Journal
Juno flew by Ganymede in 2021 June and measured the microwave brightness temperatures of the ice shell at six frequencies from 0.6–22 GHz. Based on the increasing brightness temperature with wavelength, S. Brown et al.

Planet Mass Function around M Stars at 1–10 au: A Plethora of Sub-Earth Mass Objects

The Astrophysical Journal
Small planets (≲1 M _⊕ ) at intermediate orbital distances (∼1 au) represent an uncharted territory in exoplanetary science. The upcoming microlensing survey by the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will be sensitive to objects as light as Ganymede and ...

Resonant Plasma Acceleration at Jupiter Driven by Satellite‐Magnetosphere Interactions

Geophysical Research Letters
The Juno spacecraft had previously observed intense high frequency wave emission, broadband electron and energetic proton energy distributions within magnetic flux tubes connected to Io, Europa, Ganymede, and their wakes.

A Billion-Year Facelift and Cleaner Air

The Scientific World Journal, 2001
Science leads the first (or is it second?) year of the millennium with a story about a facelift for Jupiter’s moon, Ganymede. Nature leads with a story about new regulations on diesel-powered vehicles in the U.S.

Proton Trapping in Ganymede’s Magnetosphere: A Quantitative Test Particle Study

The Astrophysical Journal
Ganymede, the largest moon in the solar system, possesses an intrinsic dipole magnetic field, creating a mini-magnetosphere within Jupiter’s giant magnetosphere.

Energetic Proton Dynamics in Ganymede’s Magnetosphere under Different Upstream Conditions: The Role of Field-line Curvature Scattering

The Astrophysical Journal
Ganymede’s mini-magnetosphere is embedded in the variable Jovian plasma environment, yet how upstream conditions regulate energetic proton dynamics within the magnetosphere remains an open question.

“My Coote thy Chamber, my bosome thy Bed”: (Dis)locating Homoerotic Sexual Fantasies in Richard Barnfield’s Ganymede Poems

Sillages Critiques
Relying on a close analysis of Richard Barnfield’s Affectionate Shepheard (1594) and of the sonnets to Ganymede in Cynthia (1595), this article reflects on the representation of the bed in early modern England in highlighting the conspicuous absence of ...

Juno’s high-spatial-resolution ultraviolet observations of Ganymede’s auroral patches

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. We analyzed ultraviolet observations of Ganymede recorded on June 7, 2021, by the Juno spacecraft, which observed the aurora at high spatial resolution in order to detect the presence of auroral sub-structures.

Radiative transfer models of water plumes in Ganymede’s atmosphere

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Detecting and characterising plumes that may insert subsurface water into the tenuous atmospheres of the icy Galilean moons is a key objective for the Submillimetre Wave Instrument (SWI) on board ESA’s JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) mission.

Off-equatorial Electron Trajectories in Ganymede’s Magnetosphere: Implications for a Bifurcated Ring Current Under Different Jovian Wind Conditions

The Astrophysical Journal
Ganymede, Jupiter’s largest moon, hosts a minimagnetosphere sustained by its intrinsic magnetic field and embedded in the sub-Alfvénic Jovian plasma flow, providing a unique natural laboratory for studying energetic particle behavior. By combining a test-
