The Ultraviolet Spectrograph on ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer Mission (JUICE-UVS)

Kurt D. Retherford, Philippa M. Molyneux, Thomas K. Greathouse +51

The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission, led by ESA, has an Ultraviolet Spectrograph (JUICE-UVS) contributed by NASA and built at Southwest Research Institute. JUICE-UVS is…

The Lyman alpha Sky as Observed by New Horizons

G. R. Gladstone, J. M. Shull, W. R. Pryor +22

During September 2023 the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft was used to map diffuse Lyman alpha (Lya) emission over most of the sky, at a range of…

The Io, Europa and Ganymede auroral footprints at Jupiter in the ultraviolet: positions and equatorial lead angles

Vincent Hue, Randy Gladstone, Corentin K. Louis +16

Jupiter's satellite auroral footprints are a consequence of the interaction between the Jovian magnetic field with co-rotating iogenic plasma and the Galilean moons. The disturbanc…

Enhanced CH absorption within Jupiter's southern auroral oval from Juno UVS observations

Rohini S. Giles, Vincent Hue, Thomas K. Greathouse +9

Reflected sunlight observations from the Ultraviolet Spectrograph (UVS) on the Juno spacecraft were used to study the distribution of acetylene (CH) at Jupiter's south pole…

Meridional variations of CH in Jupiter's stratosphere from Juno UVS observations

Rohini S. Giles, Thomas K. Greathouse, Vincent Hue +10

The UVS instrument on the Juno mission records far-ultraviolet reflected sunlight from Jupiter. These spectra are sensitive to the abundances of chemical species in the upper atmos…
