The Orbits of the Outer Jovian Satellites
We report on the numerically integrated orbits for the nine outer Uranian satellites. The orbits are calculated based on fits to the astrometric observations for the period from 1984 to 2006. The results include the state vectors, post-fit residuals, and mean orbital elements.

Abstract Planetary wave activity on Jupiter has been consistently observed since the Voyager mission. This study uses NASA Infrared Telescope Facility 7.6–7.9 μm long‐term ground‐based observations from 1984 to 2011 and global maps from the Cassini flyby in November and December 2000 to analyze Jupiter's stratospheric planetary wave activity.

Abstract Energetic electron precipitation transfers trapped magnetospheric energy into Jupiter's atmosphere, yet its contribution beyond the main auroral oval has to be fully quantified. This study statistically investigates the atmospheric energy input from electrons in the 30 keV–1.2 MeV range using in situ measurements from the Juno spacecraft ...

A Constraint on the Density of Jupiter’s Moon Thebe from Primordial Dynamics
Of the 97 known satellites in the Jovian system, the individual masses and densities of each moon have only been determined for six of them: the four Galileans, Amalthea, and Himalia. In this Letter, we derive a prediction for the mean density (and mass)

The thermal/ sensory gravity “S.O.S.” the last phase (40°–50° C) of global warming [PDF]
The gravitational buckling is an ice hole or black hole in the frozen quantum binary space penetrated by the light ignition, the backscattering of radiant thermal energy, where the quantum light barrier (cs = 1010 m/s) breaks together with the thermal ...

Motional Induction in Ganymede's Ocean
Abstract We investigate the magnetic signature of oceanic circulation in Ganymede's subsurface ocean using kinematic induction modeling. Our approach couples zonal jet flows from rotating thermal convection simulations with magnetic field models incorporating Ganymede's internal dynamo and external contributions from Jupiter.

Modeling magnetospheric fields in the Jupiter system
The various processes which generate magnetic fields within the Jupiter system are exemplary for a large class of similar processes occurring at other planets in the solar system, but also around extrasolar planets.

Three-body resonance in meteoroid streams [PDF]
Mean-motion resonances play an important role in the evolution of various meteoroid streams. Previous works have studied the effects of two-body resonances in different comets and streams. These already established two-body resonances were mainly induced

Comparing NASA Discovery and New Frontiers Class Mission Concepts for the Io Volcano Observer
Jupiter’s moon Io is a highly compelling target for future exploration that offers critical insight into tidal dissipation processes and the geology of high heat flux worlds, including primitive planetary bodies, such as the early Earth, that are shaped ...

Auroral Emissions on Ganymede: New Constraints on Their Electron Energy Dependence
Abstract Auroral emissions on Ganymede provide critical insights into its magnetospheric dynamics and atmospheric composition. Using a physics‐based atmospheric model with recent atmospheric observations and laboratory measurements of electron‐impact cross‐sections, this study revisits and significantly refines the relationship between auroral emission
