Europa and Callisto Induced or intrinsic fields in a periodically varying plasma environment
Magnetometer data from four Galileo passes by the Jovian moon Europa and three passes by Callisto are used to interpret the properties of the plasma surrounding these moons and to identify internal sources of magnetic perturbations. Near Europa the measurements are consistent with a plasma rich in pickup ions whose source is freshly ionized neutrals sputtered off of the moon's surface or atmosp...
متن کاملThermal infrared spectroscopy of Europa and Callisto
The trailing hemispheres of Europa and Callisto were observed at 913/•m, and a spectrum of Europa with better spectral resolution and a better signal-to-noise ratio than was previously possible has been derived. The ratio spectrum of the two satellites has a signal-to-noise ratio of approximately 30 for a spectral resolving power of approximately 50. The disk-integrated, effective color tempera...
متن کاملCondensed O2 on Europa and Callisto
High signal-to-noise ratio spectra of Europa and Callisto’s trailing side show a 0.3% deep 5771 Å absorption band due to condensed O2 at the same wavelength as a stronger band previously identified on Ganymede. Excellent longitudinal coverage for Europa shows that unlike Ganymede, where the band is much stronger on the trailing side, Europa shows no significant longitudinal variation in the O2 ...
متن کاملSubsurface Oceans on Europa and Callisto: Constraints from GalileoMagnetometer Observations
Magnetic field perturbations measured during Galileo flybys of Europa and Callisto are consistent with dipole fields induced by the temporal variations of the ambient jovian magnetospheric field. These fields are close to those expected for perfectly conducting moons. We investigate the implications of these observations for the electrical structure of the moon’s interiors using a simple shell ...
متن کاملtransverse Ising chain with periodically varying bonds and fields
Using continued fractions we study the ground state properties of the spin– 1 2 Ising chain in a transverse field with periodically varying interaction strengths and external fields. We consider in detail the chain having the period of modulation of interactions equals 2 and compare the results obtained with those corresponding to the spin– 1 2 isotropic XY chain in a transverse field. In contr...
