Jupiter’s Early Luminosity May Have Driven off Io’s Initial Water Inventory

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
After its formation, Jupiter was substantially more luminous than it is at the present day (10 ^4 times). Right after formation, the inner satellites Io and Europa would have received an order-of-magnitude larger incoming flux from Jupiter, than solar ...

Impact of Heavy Ions on the Structure of Current Sheets in the Gravity Field of Exoplanets and Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Boundary current sheets (CSs) can be formed in collisionless space plasmas in the environment of exoplanets and cold stars. Usually they represent curved surfaces carrying the electric current analogous to the well-known planetary ionospheres ...

Ephemerides of the outer Jovian satellites [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2005
The results of the determination of orbits for 54 outer satellites of Jupiter based on all available observations of these satellites are presented. The problem was solved using numerical integration method applied to the equations of satellite motion. After initial conditions of integration were refined, the residuals of observations from theory were ...

OBSERVATIONS OF THE MUTUAL PHENOMENA OF THE GALILEAN MOONS IN 2009

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2009
The instrumental and ephemeris preparation for the photometric observations of the mutual phenomena in the system of planetary satellites was conducted within the PHEMU09 project.

Detecting Exomoons from Radial Velocity Measurements of Self-luminous Planets: Application to Observations of HR 7672 B and Future Prospects

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The detection of satellites around extrasolar planets, so called exomoons, remains a largely unexplored territory. In this work, we study the potential of detecting these elusive objects from radial velocity monitoring of self-luminous, directly imaged ...

Similarity of the Jovian satellite footprints: Spots multiplicity and dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2017
In the magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn, the intense interaction of the satellites Io, Europa, Ganymede and Enceladus with their surrounding plasma environment leaves a signature in the aurora of the planet. Called satellite footprints, these auroral features appear either as a single spot (Europa and Enceladus) or as multiple spots (Io and ...

The Collisional Evolution of the Primordial Kuiper Belt, Its Destabilized Population, and the Trojan Asteroids

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
The tumultuous early era of outer solar system evolution culminated when Neptune migrated across the primordial Kuiper Belt (PKB) and triggered a dynamical instability among the giant planets.

Radio Pulse Power Distribution of Lightning in Jupiter's 2021–2022 Stealth Superstorms

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Surveys and observations of lightning on Jupiter prior to the NASA Juno mission used night‐side imaging approaches, and a common conclusion was that the optical energy was similar to the highest energy terrestrial lightning flashes, or superbolts.

Length, Width, and Relative Age Analysis of Lineaments in the Galileo Regional Maps with LineaMapper

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The Galileo regional mosaics (“RegMaps”) show Europa’s extensive regional-scale tectonic features under similar illumination conditions. Detailed lineament studies can help constrain resurfacing events and formation mechanisms, but most lineament maps ...
