Phoebe's orbit from ground-based and space-based observations [PDF]
, 2013 The ephemeris of Phoebe, the ninth satellite of Saturn, is not very accurate. Previous dynamical models were usually too simplified, the astrometry is heterogeneous and, the Saturn's ephemeris itself is an additionnal source of error.

The Planetary Science JournalWater vapor produces a series of diagnostic emission lines in the near-infrared between 2.60 and 2.75 μ m. The Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) on board the Cassini spacecraft detected this emission signal from Enceladus’s plume, and so ...

Statistical Study on L‐O Mode Saturn Kilometric Radiation
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.Abstract Based on the 13 years‐long observation of Saturn kilometric radiation (SKR) by the Cassini/Radio and Plasma Wave Science instrument, this study derives statistics for left‐hand (L‐O) mode SKR emissions. These emissions span a frequency range from below 10 kHz to approximately 1,000 kHz, with spectral flux densities ranging between 10−24 and 10−

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 14, 28 July 2025.Abstract Observations from the Juno spacecraft near the M‐shells of the Galilean moons have identified alternating enhancements and reductions of particle fluxes at discrete energies. These banded structures were previously attributed to bounce resonance between particles and standing Alfvén waves generated by moon‐magnetospheric interactions. Here, we

Symmetric Instability in a Boussinesq Fluid on a Rotating Planet
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract Symmetric instability has broad applications in geophysical and planetary fluid dynamics. It plays a crucial role in the formation of mesoscale rainbands at mid‐latitudes on Earth, instability in the ocean's mixed layer, and slantwise convection on gas giants and icy moon oceans.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract This study investigates Jupiter's dawnside magnetodisc, using plasma and magnetic field measurements from Juno orbits 5 to 12 to refine a radial force‐balance magnetodisc model. This iterative vector potential model examines variations in the azimuthal magnetodisc current, coupled with a magnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling model from which the ...

Cassini Ring Seismology as a Probe of Saturn's Interior I: Rigid Rotation
, 2018 Seismology of the gas giants holds the potential to resolve long-standing questions about their internal structure and rotation state. We construct a family of Saturn interior models constrained by the gravity field and compute their adiabatic mode ...

Impacts Into Titan's Methane‐Clathrate Crust as a Source of Atmospheric Methane
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract Titan is the only icy satellite in the solar system with a dense atmosphere. This atmosphere is composed primarily of nitrogen with a few percent methane, which supports an active, methane‐based hydrological cycle on Titan. The presence of methane, however, is intriguing, as its lifetime is likely much shorter than the age of the solar system ...
