Asymmetry in Uranus' High Energy Proton Radiation Belt [PDF]
Geophysical Research LettersUranus is one of the least explored planets in our solar system, it exhibits a unique magnetic field structure which was observed by NASA's Voyager 2 mission nearly 50 years ago.

Designing Trajectories to Uranus Using Particle Swarm Optimization [PDF]
, 2023 As the interest in interplanetary missions becomes more prevalent in the modern day, two planets have been infrequently visited, Uranus and Neptune. Yet, the 2013-2022 and 2023-2032 Decadal Surveys have placed high priority on Uranus missions.

A Low Signal Detection of X‐Rays From Uranus [PDF]
, 2021 Within the solar system, X‐ray emissions have been detected from every planet except the Ice Giants: Uranus and Neptune. We analyze the three archival Chandra X‐ray observations of Uranus (each 24–30 ks duration) to date: a stand‐alone Advanced CCD ...

Does Uranus' Asymmetric Magnetic Field Produce a Relatively Weak Proton Radiation Belt?
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Since the Voyager 2 flyby in 1986 the radiation belts of Uranus have presented a problem for physicists. The observations indicate the electron radiation belt is far more intense than the proton radiation belt, and while the electron intensities are ...

Uranus’s and Neptune’s Stratospheric Water Abundance and Vertical Profile from Herschel-HIFI
The Planetary Science Journal, 2022 Here we present new constraints on Uranus’s and Neptune’s externally sourced stratospheric water abundance using disk-averaged observations of the 557 GHz emission line from Herschel’s Heterodyne Instrument for the Far-Infrared.

Pitch-angle diffusion coefficients from resonant interactions with electrostatic electron cyclotron harmonic waves in planetary magnetospheres [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2011 Pitch-angle diffusion coefficients have been calculated for resonant interaction with electrostatic electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves in the magnetospheres of Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
