Dynamics of Saturn's Polar Regions

A. Antuñano, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia, A. Sánchez-Lavega +1

We analyze data retrieved by the Imaging Science System onboard the Cassini spacecraft to study the horizontal velocity and vorticity fields of Saturn's Polar Regions (latitudes 60…

The long-term steady motion of Saturn's Hexagon and the stability of its enclosed jet-stream under seasonal changes

A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia, R. Hueso +15

We investigate the long-term motion of Saturn's North-Pole Hexagon and the structure of its associated eastward jet, using Cassini ISS and ground-based images from 2008 to 2014. We…

Infrared Characterisation of Jupiter's Equatorial Disturbance Cycle

Arrate Antuñano, Leigh N. Fletcher, Glenn S. Orton +6

We use an infrared dataset captured between 1984 and 2017 using several instruments and observatories to report five rare equatorial disturbances that completely altered the appear…

An Enduring Rapidly Moving Storm as a Guide to Saturn's Equatorial Jet's Complex Structure

A. Sánchez-Lavega, E. García-Melendo, S. Perez-Hoyos +14

Saturn has an intense and broad eastward equatorial jet with a complex three-dimensional structure mixed with time variability. The equatorial region experiences strong seasonal in…

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…
