Keys of a Mission to Uranus or Neptune, the Closest Ice Giants

Tristan Guillot, Jonathan Fortney, Emily Rauscher +26

Uranus and Neptune are the archetypes of "ice giants", a class of planets that may be among the most common in the Galaxy. They hold the keys to understand the atmospheric dynamics…

Ice Giant Atmospheric Science

Emma K. Dahl, Shawn Brueshaber, Richard Cosentino +24

This white paper, written in support of NASA's 2023-2032 Planetary Decadal Survey, outlines 10 major questions that focus on the origin, evolution, and current processes that shape…

The Science Case for Spacecraft Exploration of the Uranian Satellites

Richard J. Cartwright, Chloe B. Beddingfield, Tom Nordheim +14

The five classical Uranian moons are possible ocean worlds that exhibit bizarre geologic landforms, hinting at recent surface-interior communication. However, Uranus' classical moo…

Magnetic Induction in Convecting Galilean Oceans

S. D. Vance, B. G. Bills, C. J. Cochrane +4

To date, analyses of magnetic induction in putative oceans in Jupiter's large icy moons have assumed uniform conductivity in the modeled oceans. However, the phase and amplitude re…

Ocean dynamics of outer solar system satellites

Krista Soderlund

Ocean worlds are prevalent in the solar system. Focusing on Enceladus, Titan, Europa, and Ganymede, I use rotating convection theory and numerical simulations to predict ocean curr…

True Polar Wander of Enceladus From Topographic Data

Radwan Tajeddine, Krista M. Soderlund, Peter C. Thomas +4

Many obsects in the solar system are suspected to have experience reorientation of their spin axes. As their rotation rates are slow and their shapes are nearly spherical, the form…
