ALICE: The Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph aboard the New Horizons Pluto-Kuiper Belt Mission

S. Alan Stern, David C. Slater, John Scherrer +8

The New Horizons ALICE instrument is a lightweight (4.4 kg), low-power (4.4 Watt) imaging spectrograph aboard the New Horizons mission to Pluto/Charon and the Kuiper Belt. Its prim…

A study of Jupiter's aurorae with XMM-Newton

G. Branduardi-Raymont, A. Bhardwaj, R. F. Elsner +6

We present a detailed analysis of Jupiter's X-ray (0.2-10 keV) auroral emissions as observed by XMM-Newton in Nov. 2003 and compare it with that of an Apr. 2003 observation. We dis…

Latest results on Jovian disk X-rays from XMM-Newton

G. Branduardi-Raymont, A. Bhardwaj, R. F. Elsner +6

We present the results of a spectral study of the soft X-ray emission (0.2-2.5 keV) from low-latitude (`disk') regions of Jupiter. The data were obtained during two observing campa…

XMM-Newton observations of X-ray emission from Jupiter

G. Branduardi-Raymont, A. Bhardwaj, R. F. Elsner +6

We present the results of two XMM-Newton observations of Jupiter carried out in 2003 for 100 and 250 ks (or 3 and 7 planet rotations) respectively. X-ray images from the EPIC CCD c…
