Energetic proton dropouts during the Juno flyby of Europa strongly depend on magnetic field perturbations
H. L. F. Huybrighs, S. Cervantes, P. Kollmann +8
During Juno's only flyby of Europa, the Jupiter Energetic Particle Detector Instrument (JEDI) measured complex dropouts in the energetic ion flux in Europa's wake. We investigate t…

Mass supply from Io to Jupiter's magnetosphere
L. Roth, A. Blöcker, K. de Kleer +24
Since the Voyager mission flybys in 1979, we have known the moon Io to be both volcanically active and the main source of plasma in the vast magnetosphere of Jupiter. Material lost…

Energetic proton losses reveal Io's extended and longitudinally asymmetrical atmosphere
H. L. F. Huybrighs, C. P. A. van Buchem, A. Blöcker +3
Along the I24, I27 and I31 flybys of Io (1999-2001), the Energetic Particle Detector (EPD) onboard the Galileo spacecraft observed localised regions of energetic protons losses (15…
