On the Origin and Dynamical Evolution of Jupiter’s Moon Amalthea
The Astrophysical JournalInterior to the orbits of Jupiter’s iconic Galilean moons are four small satellites with individual mean radii R ≲ 84 km. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that these bodies formed at a more distant location in Jupiter’s circumplanetary disk before ...

Ion cyclotron waves: a tool for characterizing neutral particle profiles in extended exospheres
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesPlanetary exospheres are usually observed using transit spectroscopic methods, such as the Lyman-α line, which is mainly limited by interstellar medium absorption and airglow contamination from the geocorona when using low-orbit space telescopes or ...

Spectral Decomposition Reveals Surface Processes on Europa
The Astrophysical JournalCompeting processes shape Europa’s surface: geological activity replenishes material through resurfacing, while bombardment by charged particles alters surface chemical composition. Each process leaves distinct spectral signatures.

Monte Carlo Calculation of Electron Energy Degradation in a Pure O2 Atmosphere
The Astrophysical JournalElectron degradation serves as a significant energy source in planetary upper atmospheres. In this study, a Monte Carlo model is constructed to investigate the degradation of electrons in a pure O _2 atmosphere under the local approximation. Both elastic

Galileo dust data from the jovian system: 2000 to 2003
, 2009 The Galileo spacecraft was orbiting Jupiter between Dec 1995 and Sep 2003. The Galileo dust detector monitored the jovian dust environment between about 2 and 370 R_J (jovian radius R_J = 71492 km).

The Astrophysical Journal LettersRed spectral slopes (i.e. increasing reflectance with increasing wavelength) and featureless 0.5–2.5 μ m spectra are often associated with the presence of organic material, and there is a sense that the redder the slope, the more organic material is ...
