75. Jupiter as a radio source

Radio Emission from Jupiter

Three reviews of radio emission from Jupiter have appeared recently (1, 2, 3) and at least one more is currently in press. The present review primarily covers work since 1961. It would be not too strong to suggest that explanations of Jupiter's emission now are in the second generation, with most observational phenomena fairly well established. The salient observed features are not widely known...

Disk as the source of the Jupiter Family comets

The short period Jupiter family comets (JFCs) are thought to originate in the Kuiper Belt; specifically a dynamical subclass of the Kuiper Belt known as the 'scattered disk' is argued to be the dominant source of JFCs. However, the best estimates from observational surveys indicate that this source falls short by about three orders of magnitude the estimates obtained from theoretical models of ...

Hesperidin as a natural Radio-Protector

Despite widespread usage of ionizing radiation in medical diagnosis and treatment methods, development of radio-protective agents is important in modulating normal tissue damages. The inherent toxicity of synthetic compounds and the confirmation of low toxicity of natural compound in accordance with long – term usage of medicine have led many researchers to investigate the radio-protective abil...

Planetary radio astronomy observations from voyager 2 near jupiter.

The Voyager 2 Planetary Radio Astronomy experiment to Jupiter has confirmed and extended to higher zenomagnetic latitudes results from the identical experiment carried by Voyager 1. The kilometric emissions discovered by Voyager 1 often extended to 1 megahertz or higher on Voyager 2 and often consisted of negatively or, less frequently, positively drifting narrowband bursts. On the basis of ten...
