Plasma waves in planetary magnetospheres
Reviews of Geophysics, 1983The studies of magnetospheric plasma waves in the 1979–1982 quadrennium have included not only intensive studies of plasma waves in the Earth's magnetosphere but also, for the first time, in situ observations and detailed analyses of plasma waves in the magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn.

Charged dust in the outer planetary magnetospheres
The Moon and the Planets, 1981Interplanetary dust grains entering the Jovian plasmasphere become charged, and those in a certain size range get magneto-gravitationally trapped in the corotating plasmasphere. The trajectories of such dust grains intersect the orbits of one or more of the Galilean satellites.

New horizons in planetary magnetospheres
Advances in Space Research, 2006Abstract The magnetospheres of Mercury, the Earth and Jupiter provide an especially good comparison of the processes that control the behavior of magnetospheres. The Mercurian magnetosphere is the smallest. Its field lines are anchored in the electrically conducting interior of Mercury and not in a conducting ionosphere.

Multiscale coupling in planetary magnetospheres
Advances in Space Research, 2002Abstract Processes in planetary magnetospheres occur on a variety of scales. On the largest scales are the plasma circulations induced in the magnetospheric plasma externally by the solar wind interaction or internally by processes such as massloading of the jovian magnetosphere by the moon Io.

The Solar Wind Interaction with Planetary Magnetospheres
2005The solar wind interaction with planetary magnetospheres is a multifarious topic of which our understanding continues to grow as we obtain more detailed observations and more capable numerical codes. We attempt to explain how the system functions by examining the output of models of increasing sophistication.

Solar Wind and planetary magnetospheres
2015Solar Wind interacts with solar system objects by exchanging momentum and energy. This transfer is particularly effective in the case of weakly magnetized bodies (Mars, Venus and comets) and small magnetosphere (Mercury).This interaction contributes to the erosion of the gaseous envelop and to the atmospheric dynamic and has therefore an important ...

Energetic Particles from Planetary Magnetospheres
2016It was not until the dawn of the space age that we discovered that the Earth’s magnetosphere was full of energetic particles. It was therefore reasonable to suppose that all planets with a strong magnetic field would have trapped energetic particles within their magnetosphere.
