Spectral trends across the rings and inner moons of Uranus and Neptune from JWST NIRCam images
M. M. Hedman, I. de Pater, R. Cartwright +8
JWST NIRCam images provide low-resolution spectra of the rings and inner moons orbiting Uranus and Neptune. These data reveal systematic variations in spectral parameters like the…
The science case for spacecraft exploration of the Uranian satellites: Candidate ocean worlds in an ice giant system
Richard J. Cartwright, Chloe B. Beddingfield, Tom A. Nordheim +15
The 27 satellites of Uranus are enigmatic, with dark surfaces coated by material that could be rich in organics. Voyager 2 imaged the southern hemispheres of Uranus' five largest '…
Frontiers in Planetary Rings Science
Shawn M. Brooks, Tracy M. Becker, K. Baillié +25
We now know that the outer solar system is host to at least six diverse planetary ring systems, each of which is a scientifically compelling target with the potential to inform us…
Formation of Charon's Red Poles From Seasonally Cold-Trapped Volatiles
W. M. Grundy, D. P. Cruikshank, G. R. Gladstone +38
A unique feature of Pluto's large satellite Charon is its dark red northern polar cap. Similar colours on Pluto's surface have been attributed to organic macromolecules produced by…
Impact Craters on Pluto and Charon Indicate a Deficit of Small Kuiper Belt Objects
K. N. Singer, W. B. McKinnon, B. Gladman +20
The flyby of Pluto and Charon by the New Horizons spacecraft provided high-resolution images of cratered surfaces embedded in the Kuiper belt, an extensive region of bodies orbitin…
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…
