Zusammenfassung |
Ganymede's mini-magnetosphere, embedded in Jupiter's larger one, sustains ULF
(ultra-low frequency) waves that are analyzed here using data from two Galileo flybys that
penetrate deeply into the upstream closed field line region. The magnetometer
data are used to identify field line resonances, magnetopause waves and ion
cyclotron waves. The plasma densities that are inferred from the
interpretation of these waves are compared with the observations made by
other plasma and wave experiments on Galileo and with numerical and
theoretical models of Ganymede's magnetosphere. |
