Solar System Ice Giants: Exoplanets in our Backyard
Abigail Rymer, Kathleen Mandt, Dana Hurley +110
Future remote sensing of exoplanets will be enhanced by a thorough investigation of our solar system Ice Giants (Neptune-size planets). What can the configuration of the magnetic f…
Cassini CAPS identification of pickup ion compositions at Rhea
R. T. Desai, S. A. Taylor, L. H. Regoli +9
Saturn's largest icy moon, Rhea, hosts a tenuous surface-sputtered exosphere composed primarily of molecular oxygen and carbon dioxide. In this Letter, we examine Cassini Plasma Sp…
Cassini in situ observations of long-duration magnetic reconnection in Saturn's magnetotail
Christopher S. Arridge, Jonathan P. Eastwood, Caitriona M. Jackman +15
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process in solar system and astrophysical plasmas, through which stored magnetic energy associated with current sheets is converted into ther…
CPIC: a Curvilinear Particle-In-Cell code for plasma-material interaction studies
Gian Luca Delzanno, Enrico Camporeale, J. David Moulton +3
We describe a new electrostatic Particle-In-Cell (PIC) code in curvilinear geometry called Curvilinear PIC (CPIC). The code models the microscopic (kinetic) evolution of a plasma w…
Geosynchronous magnetopause crossings: necessary conditions
A. Suvorova, A. Dmitriev, J. -K. Chao +2
The experimental data on GOES magnetic measurements and plasma measurements on LANL geosynchronous satellites is used for selection of 169 case events containing 638 geosynchronous…
Influence of Hot Plasma Pressure on the Global Structure of Saturn's Magnetodisk
N. Achilleos, P. Guio, C. S. Arridge +4
Using a model of force balance in Saturn's disk-like magnetosphere, we show that variations in hot plasma pressure can change the magnetic field configuration. This effect changes…
