Observed Latitudinal, Longitudinal and Temporal Variability of Io's Atmosphere Simulated by a Purely Sublimation Driven Atmosphere

A. -C. Dott, J. Saur, S. Schlegel +3

How much of Io's SO atmosphere is driven by volcanic outgasing or sublimation of SO surface frost is a question with a considerable history. We develop a time dependent sur…

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 Structure of the warped Io Plasma Torus constrained by the Io Footprint

Stephan Schlegel, Joachim Saur

Standard models of force balance along Jovian field lines predict the location of the Io plasma torus to be the centrifugal equator of Jupiter's magnetosphere, i.e. the position al…

Alternating emission features in Io's footprint tail: Magnetohydrodynamical simulations of possible causes

Stephan Schlegel, Joachim Saur

Io's movement relative to the plasma in Jupiter's magnetosphere creates Alfvén waves propagating along the magnetic field lines which are partially reflected along their path. Thes…

Mapping the Brightness of Ganymede's Ultraviolet Aurora using Hubble Space Telescope Observations

Alexander Marzok, Stehpan Schlegel, Joachim Saur +4

We analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of Ganymede made with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) between 1998 and 2017 to generate a brightness map of Gan…
