Searching for Saturn's X-rays during a rare Jupiter Magnetotail Crossing using Chandra
D. M. Weigt, W. R. Dunn, C. M. Jackman +6
Every 19 years, Saturn passes through Jupiter's 'flapping' magnetotail. Here, we report Chandra X-ray observations of Saturn planned to coincide with this rare planetary alignment…
The search for radio emission from the exoplanetary systems 55 Cancri, Andromedae, and Boötis using LOFAR beam-formed observations
Jake D. Turner, Philippe Zarka, Jean-Mathias Grießmeier +8
Observing planetary auroral radio emission is the most promising method to detect exoplanetary magnetic fields, the knowledge of which will provide valuable insights into the plane…
Magnetohydrodynamic modelling of star-planet interaction and associated auroral radio emission
Sam Turnpenney, Jonathan D. Nichols, Graham A. Wynn +1
We present calculations of auroral radio powers of magnetised hot Jupiters orbiting Sun-like stars, computed using global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modelling of the magnetospheric…
Exoplanet host-star properties: the active environment of exoplanets
John P. Pye, David Barrado, Rafael A. Garcia +12
The primary objectives of the ExoplANETS-A project are to: establish new knowledge on exoplanet atmospheres; establish new insight on influence of the host star on the planet atmos…
Exoplanet-induced radio emission from M-dwarfs
S. Turnpenney, J. D. Nichols, G. A. Wynn +1
We consider the magnetic interaction of exoplanets orbiting M-dwarfs, calculating the expected Poynting flux carried upstream along Alfvén wings to the central star. A region of em…
Magnetospheres of hot Jupiters: hydrodynamic models & ultraviolet absorption
R. D. Alexander, G. A. Wynn, H. Mohammed +2
We present hydrodynamic simulations of stellar wind-magnetosphere interactions in hot Jupiters such as WASP-12b. For fiducial stellar wind rates we find that a planetary magnetic f…
Observing Jupiter's polar stratospheric haze with HST/STIS. An HST White Paper
Denis Grodent, Bertrand Bonfond, Jonathan Nichols
The purpose of this HST white paper is to demonstrate that it is possible to monitor Jupiter's polar haze with HST/STIS without breaking the ground screening limit for bright objec…
The crucial role of HST during the NASA Juno mission: a "Juno initiative"
Denis Grodent, Bertrand Bonfond, Jean-Claude Gérard +5
In 2016, the NASA Juno spacecraft will initiate its one-year mission around Jupiter and become the first probe to explore the polar regions of Jupiter. The HST UV instruments (STIS…
