Planetary and Space Science, 1996
Abstract Five closely spaced magnetic field directional discontinuities observed by Voyager 1 late on 2 March 1979 are analyzed using a variance technique. These discontinuities showed magnetic field signatures characteristic of magnetopause crossings occurring periodically at ≈ 36 min intervals but without dramatic changes in the low energy ( 5 ...

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1994
Recent work in ocean acoustic tomography indicates that acoustic waves propagating global distances contain planetary-scale information [A. B. Baggeroer and W. Munk, Phys. Today 45(9), 22–30 (1992)]. The expected collision of the fragments of comet Shoemaker–Levy 9 with Jupiter in July [J. K. Beatty and D. H.

Reviews of Geophysics, 1983
The 1979–82 quadrennium was a time of unprecedented excitement and achievement in Jovian magnetospheric physics, highlighted by the traversais by Voyager‐1 and ‐2 (V‐1, ‐2) in March and July 1979. Our knowledge has been expanded immensely by Voyager observations and their interpretations, and this review is devoted largely to them. Not to be overlooked,

Advances in Space Research, 1986
The current understanding of the plasma, magnetic field, and plasma wave characteristics of the near and distant Jovian magnetotail is discussed. The properties of these two regions are compared, with particular emphasis given to the data on the distant tail obtained by Voyager 2.

Dynamics of Jovian Atmospheres
Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 1995Earth's atmosphere receives more energy per unit area than any other planetary atmosphere (including Venus), and yet has the weakest winds in the solar system (Ingersoll 1 990). This is an indication that the terrestrial problem is complicated. Major factors that contribute to the complexity of Earth's weather are its irregular boundary conditions, i ...

Icarus, 1973
This paper reports results obtained on ionosphere formation in the Jovian upper atmosphere with special reference to some of the recently available reaction rates, and to recent models of the Jovian neutral atmosphere based on the possibility of a warmer mesopause.

Icarus, 1976
A brief review of the history of Jovian satellite nomenclature is given to indicate the background for the names proposed for the numbered satellites. The new names are consistent with established tradition and should cause minimal confusion with other named objects in the solar system.

Nature, 2008
Planetary aurorae are formed by energetic charged particles streaming along the planet's magnetic field lines into the upper atmosphere from the surrounding space environment. Earth's main auroral oval is formed through interactions with the solar wind, whereas that at Jupiter is formed through interactions with plasma from the moon Io inside its ...

A New Look at the Jovian Planets
Science, 1999The Infrared Space Observatory was launched by the European Space Agency in November 1995. For two and a half years, the craft gathered a wealth of data on the jovian planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. In their Perspective, BA©zard et al .

Jupiter is a copious source of radiowaves having a wavelength of 3–75 cm. The radiation is 20% or so linearly polarized perpendicular to the planet rotation axis, does not vary much in intensity over the entire range of observed frequencies, and changes slowly in intensity over a time interval of the order of a few years.
