An attempt to detect transient changes in Io's SO2 and NaCl atmosphere
L. Roth, J. Boissier, A. Moullet +15
Io's atmosphere is predominately SO2 sustained by a combination of volcanic outgassing and sublimation. The loss from the atmosphere is the main mass source for Jupiter's large mag…
Pluto's Ultraviolet Spectrum, Surface Reflectance, and Airglow Emissions
Andrew J. Steffl, Leslie A. Young, Darrell F. Strobel +16
During the New Horizons spacecraft's encounter with Pluto, the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph conducted a series of observations that detected emissions from both the interplanetar…
Initial results from the New Horizons exploration of 2014 MU69, a small Kuiper Belt Object
S. A. Stern, H. A. Weaver, J. R. Spencer +202
The Kuiper Belt is a distant region of the Solar System. On 1 January 2019, the New Horizons spacecraft flew close to (486958) 2014 MU69, a Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Object, a cla…
An intense thermospheric jet on Titan
E. Lellouch, M. A. Gurwell, R. Moreno +7
Winds in Titan's lower and middle atmosphere have been determined by a variety of techniques, including direct measurements from the Huygens Probe over 0-150 km, Doppler shifts of…
Pluto's Haze as a Surface Material
W. M. Grundy, T. Bertrand, R. P. Binzel +37
Pluto's atmospheric haze settles out rapidly compared with geological timescales. It needs to be accounted for as a surface material, distinct from Pluto's icy bedrock and from the…
The Lyman-α Sky Background as Observed by New Horizons
G. Randall Gladstone, Wayne R. Pryor, S. Alan Stern +22
Recent observations of interplanetary medium (IPM) atomic hydrogen Lyman-α (Lyα) emission in the outer solar system, made with the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on New Horizons (N…
