Giant Planet Atmospheres
Henrik Melin
The giant planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, all have vibrant and dynamic atmospheres. The iconic belt--zone structure of Jupiter, together with the Great Red Spot, is…
The Atmosphere of Titan in Late Northern Summer from JWST and Keck Observations
Conor A. Nixon, Bruno Bézard, Thomas Cornet +42
Saturn's moon Titan undergoes a long annual cycle of 29.45 Earth years. Titan's northern winter and spring were investigated in detail by the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft (2004-2017)…
The Thermal Structure and Composition of Jupiter's Great Red Spot From JWST/MIRI
Jake Harkett, Leigh N. Fletcher, Oliver R. T. King +15
Jupiter's Great Red Spot (GRS) was mapped by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/Mid-Infrared Instrument (4.9-27.9 micron) in July and August 2022. These observations took place…
Temperature and composition disturbances in the southern auroral region of Jupiter revealed by JWST/MIRI
Pablo Rodríguez-Ovalle, Thierry Fouchet, Sandrine Guerlet +17
Jupiters south polar region was observed by JWST Mid Infrared Instrument in December 2022. We used the Medium Resolution Spectrometer mode to provide new information about Jupiters…
Investigating Thermal Contrasts Between Jupiter's Belts, Zones, and Polar Vortices with VLT/VISIR
Deborah Bardet, Padraig T. Donnelly, Leigh N. Fletcher +8
Using images at multiple mid-infrared wavelengths, acquired in May 2018 using the VISIR instrument on ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT), we study Jupiter's pole-to-pole thermal, che…
Detection of the infrared aurora at Uranus with Keck-NIRSPEC
Emma M. Thomas, Henrik Melin, Tom S. Stallard +4
Near infrared (NIR) wavelength observations of Uranus have been unable to locate any infrared aurorae, despite many attempts to do so since the 1990s. While at Jupiter and Saturn,…
Jupiter's Equatorial Plumes and Hot Spots: Spectral Mapping from Gemini/TEXES and Juno/MWR
L. N. Fletcher, G. S. Orton, T. K. Greathouse +13
We present multi-wavelength measurements of the thermal, chemical, and cloud contrasts associated with the visibly dark formations (also known as 5-m hot spots) and intervening…
Jupiter's Mesoscale Waves Observed at 5 m by Ground-Based Observations and Juno JIRAM
L. N. Fletcher, H. Melin, A. Adriani +12
We characterise the origin and evolution of a mesoscale wave pattern in Jupiter's North Equatorial Belt (NEB), detected for the first time at 5 m using a 2016-17 campaign of `lu…
