The Atmosphere and Ionosphere of Jupiter
The properties of the atmosphere of Jupiter are reviewed in the light of observations carried out by the Voyager mission. Solar occultation measurements in the ultraviolet show that the temperature of the upper atmosphere is II00±200K, an apparent increase of about 30% from the value obtained by the Pioneer mission in 1973. Stellar occultation in the ultraviolet indicate that the temperature gr...
متن کامل9 Jupiter ’ s Thermosphere and Ionosphere
Jupiter’s upper atmosphere forms the boundary between the lower atmosphere and interplanetary space. As the topmost layer, the thermosphere absorbs solar extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation and charged particles from the magnetosphere that cause dissociation and ionization of thermospheric molecules. Subsequent chemistry establishes the ionosphere and the densities of minor, photoand electroche...
متن کاملMagnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling at Jupiter: Effect of field‐aligned potentials on angular momentum transport
[1] We present a time‐independent model of Jupiter’s rotation‐driven aurora based on angular momentum conservation, including the effects of a field‐aligned potential (Fk) and an ionospheric conductivity that is modified by precipitating electrons. We argue that Fk arises from a limit to field‐aligned current at high latitudes, and hence, we apply a current‐ voltage relation, which takes into a...
متن کاملOf the Venus Ionosphere
• A two-dimensional, time-dependent, shock capturing single-sp•ies (O +)hydrodynamic odel of the Venus ionosphere, which solves the coupled continuity, momentum and energy _,•ons for the altitude range of 150 500 km and the solar zenith angle range of 0O 180 ø has been developed and is presented in this paper. It was again demonstrated thathe introduction of topside heat inflows leads to calcul...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
