Spectroscopic Links among Giant Planet Irregular Satellites and Trojans
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 We collect near-infrared spectra (∼0.75–2.55 μ m) of four Jovian irregular satellites and visible spectra (∼0.32–1.00 μ m) of two Jovian irregular satellites, two Uranian irregular satellites, and four Neptune Trojans.

Magnetic field influence on aurorae and the Jovian plasma disk radial structure [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2006 The Jovian paraboloid magnetospheric model is applied for the investigation of the planet's auroral emission and plasma disk structure in the middle magnetosphere.

A summary of observational records on periodicities above the rotational period in the Jovian magnetosphere [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 The Jovian magnetosphere is a very dynamic system. The plasma mass-loading from the moon Io and the fast planetary rotation lead to regular release of mass from the Jovian magnetosphere and to a change of the magnetic topology.

Early Stages of Galilean Moon Formation in a Water-depleted Environment
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 A key feature of the Galilean satellite system is its monotonic decrease in bulk density with growing distance from Jupiter, indicating an ice mass fraction that is zero in the innermost moon Io and about half in the outer moons Ganymede and Callisto ...

Electron cyclotron harmonic waves in Jovian magnetosphere as seen by Juno
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves along with whistler mode waves are suggested to be responsible for causing the persistent diffuse aurora in Jupiter.

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010 AbstractA comparison of the Jovian and Saturnian rings is made by reviewing the recent advances in planetary spacecraft exploration and theoretical study. Two main issues are addressed, namely, the different structures of these two planetary ring systems and the water ice composition of the Saturnian rings.

Studying the jovian Trojan dust [PDF]
Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2010 Aims. We analyze the jovian Trojan dust in the L4 swarm. Methods. To do this, we use a modification of the numerical code developed by us and previously applied to the collisional and dynamical evolution of the L4 jovian Trojans. This algorithm considers catastrophic collisions and cratering events, includes a dynamical treatment that takes the ...

Observation of Turbulent Magnetohydrodynamic Cascade in the Jovian Magnetosheath
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present the first estimation of the energy cascade rate in Jupiter’s magnetosheath (MS). We use in situ observations from the Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment and the magnetometer investigation instruments on board the Juno spacecraft, in ...

On the location of the Io plasma torus: Voyager 1 observations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2018 The Voyager 1 outbound ultraviolet observations of the Io plasma torus are used to determine the location of the ansae, to obtain a third viewing angle of this structure in the Jovian magnetosphere. At an angle of −114° with respect to the Sun–Jupiter
