Auroral diagnosis of solar wind interaction with Jupiter's magnetosphere

Z. H. Yao, B. Bonfond, D. Grodent +11

Although mass and energy in Jupiter's magnetosphere mostly come from the innermost Galilean moon Io's volcanic activities, solar wind perturbations can play crucial roles in releas…

Stellar wind-magnetosphere interaction at exoplanets: computations of auroral radio powers

J. D. Nichols, S. E. Milan

We present calculations of the auroral radio powers expected from exoplanets with magnetospheres driven by an Earth-like magnetospheric interaction with the solar wind. Specificall…

Hubble Space Telescope observations of the NUV transit of WASP-12b

J. D. Nichols, G. A. Wynn, M. Goad +6

We present new observations of four closely-spaced NUV transits of the hot Jupiter-like exoplanet WASP-12b using HST/COS, significantly increasing the phase resolution of the obser…

Candidates for detecting exoplanetary radio emissions generated by magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling

J. D. Nichols

In this paper we consider the magnetosphere-ionosphere (M-I) coupling at Jupiter-like exoplanets with internal plasma sources such as volcanic moons, and we have determined the bes…

Magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling in Jupiter's middle magnetosphere: computations including a self-consistent current sheet magnetic field model

J. D. Nichols

In this paper we consider the effect of a self-consistently computed magnetosdisc field structure on the magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling current system at Jupiter. We find that t…

Magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling at Jupiter-like exoplanets with internal plasma sources: implications for detectability of auroral radio emissions

J. D. Nichols

In this paper we provide the first consideration of magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling at Jupiter-like exoplanets with internal plasma sources such as volcanic moons. We estimate th…
