Ionosphere of Ganymede: Galileo observations versus test particle simulation

Arnaud Beth, Marina Galand, Ronan Modolo +3

In this paper, we model the plasma environment of Ganymede by means of a collisionless test particle simulation. By coupling the outputs from a DSMC simulation of Ganymede's exosph…

Mass supply from Io to Jupiter's magnetosphere

L. Roth, A. Blöcker, K. de Kleer +24

Since the Voyager mission flybys in 1979, we have known the moon Io to be both volcanically active and the main source of plasma in the vast magnetosphere of Jupiter. Material lost…

The case for studying other planetary magnetospheres and atmospheres in Heliophysics

Ian J. Cohen, Chris Arridge, Abigail Azari +37

Heliophysics is the field that "studies the nature of the Sun, and how it influences the very nature of space - and, in turn, the atmospheres of planetary bodies and the technology…

In-situ detection of Europa's water plumes is harder than previously thought

Rowan Dayton-Oxland, Hans L. F. Huybrighs, Thomas O. Winterhalder +2

Europa's subsurface ocean is a potential candidate for life in the outer solar system. It is thought that plumes may exist which eject ocean material out into space, which may be d…

Reply to comment on "An Active Plume Eruption on Europa During Galileo Flyby E26 as Indicated by Energetic Proton Depletions"

H. L. F. Huybrighs, E. Roussos, A. Blöcker +6

In Huybrighs et al., 2020 we investigated energetic proton depletions along Galileo's Europa flyby E26. Based on a particle tracing analysis we proposed that depletions are caused…

A search for signatures of Europa's atmosphere and plumes in Galileo charged particle data

Hans Leo Frans Huybrighs

Remote sensing observations indicate that Europa is surrounded by a tenuous atmosphere. Furthermore, recent observations and historic data from Galileo hint at the occurrence of wa…

On the in-situ detectability of Europa's water vapour plumes from a flyby mission

Hans L. F. Huybrighs, Yoshifumi Futaana, Stanislav Barabash +5

We investigate the feasibility of detecting water molecules (H2O) and water ions (H20+) from the Europa plumes from a flyby mission. A Monte Carlo particle tracing method is used t…
