Formation of the regular satellites of giant planets in an extended gaseous nebula I: subnebula model and accretion of satellites [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2003
We model the subnebulae of Jupiter and Saturn wherein satellite accretion took place. We expect a giant planet subnebula to be composed of an optically thick (given gaseous opacity) inner region inside of the planet's centrifugal radius (located at r(sub c, sup J) = l5R(sub J) for Jupiter and r(sub c, sup S) = 22R(sub S) for Saturn), and an optically ...

Science goals for future exploration of the habitability of the gaseous giant planets' satellites

open access: yes, 2019
Large satellites of gas giants, at orbits beyond the snow-line and the traditional "habitability zone", such as around Jupiter or Saturn, can contain a large amount of water (almost 45% in mass). Their hydrospheres are extremely thick (~600 km for Ganymede and Callisto for instance), and may possess liquid layers below the icy crust.
