متن کاملMulti-wavelength Photometry of the Icy Saturnian Satellites: a First Look
Introduction: The light reflected from planetary surfaces and measured by remote sensing instruments is affected not only by the composition of the surface but by the physical structure of the surface. The structure of the surface is characterized by both endogenic and exogenic processes. We investigate the effects of these processes on the surfaces of the icy Saturnian satellites using photome...
متن کاملImpact Crater Morphology on Saturnian Satellites
Introduction: The middle-sized icy satellites of Saturn occupy an important niche in solar system studies. This is true also in our understanding of impact crater formation, where the low to moderate surface gravity (g ~ 8-to-30 g/cm3) of these satellites gives us the opportunity to study the role of surface gravity in crater modification on ice-rich targets (in much the same way that study of ...
متن کاملOzone Synthesis on the Icy Satellites
Condensed O2 and ozone on the surfaces of some icy satellites are thought to originate from the radiolytic decomposition of surface water ice by the impact of energetic magnetospheric ions, but decades of laboratory studies have produced no evidence for ozone from the radiolysis of pure water ice. Here we report for the first time the production of ozone in ice by 100 keV ions. Using a method t...
