Magnetic Reconnection in the Plasma Disk at 23 Jupiter Radii

Jian-zhao Wang, Fran Bagenal, Stefan Eriksson +7

A key open question in astrophysics is how plasma is transported within strongly magnetized, rapidly rotating systems. Magnetic reconnection and flux tube interchange are possible…

Plutos interaction with its space environment: Solar Wind, Energetic Particles & Dust

F. Bagenal, M. Horányi, D. J. McComas +23

The New Horizons spacecraft carried three instruments that measured the space environment near Pluto as it flew by on 14 July 2015. The Solar Wind Around Pluto instrument revealed…

Solar Wind at 33 AU: Setting Bounds on the Pluto Interaction for New Horizons

F. Bagenal, P. A. Delamere, H. A. Elliott +7

The NASA New Horizons spacecraft flies past Pluto on July 14, 2015, carrying two instruments that detect charged particles. Pluto has a tenuous, extended atmosphere that is escapin…

Modeling the Enceladus plume--plasma interaction

B. L. Fleshman, P. A. Delamere, F. Bagenal

We investigate the chemical interaction between Saturn's corotating plasma and Enceladus' volcanic plumes. We evolve plasma as it passes through a prescribed H2O plume using a phys…

A Sensitivity Study of the Enceladus Torus

B. L. Fleshman, P. A. Delamere, F. Bagenal

We have developed a homogeneous model of physical chemistry to investigate the neutral-dominated, water-based Enceladus torus. Electrons are treated as the summation of two isotrop…
