The rapid rotation of the gas giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn, leads to the formation of
magnetodisc regions in their magnetospheric environments. In these regions, relatively cold …

Saturn's rich magnetospheric environment is unique in the solar system, with a large number
of active magnetospheric processes and phenomena. Observations of this environment from …

Transverse, near-circularly polarized, parallel-propagating electromagnetic waves around
the proton cyclotron frequency were found sporadically in the solar wind throughout the …

Plasma data from the Cassini Plasma Spectrometer experiment are analyzed using a robust
forward modeling technique for dayside equatorial orbits within the range 5.5 to 11 Saturn …

The excitation of electrostatic and/or electromagnetic waves in the plasma universe is often
associated with anisotropic velocity distributions of charged particles. In Earth's inner …

Using 2 Hz magnetic field data from the MESSENGER mission, we have investigated more
than 300 strong narrowband ion cyclotron wave (ICW) events at a heliocentric distance of …

The long‐term statistical behavior of the large‐scale structure of Saturn's magnetosphere
has been investigated. Established statistical techniques for Jupiter have been applied to …

By constructing an empirical model of the spectral and latitudinal distribution of ion cyclotron
waves on the basis of Cassini datasets, we investigate the resonant interactions between …

The oppositely directed magnetic field in the kronian magnetic tail is expected eventually to
reconnect across the current sheet, allowing plasma to escape in an anti‐solar direction …

In this chapter, we review selected fundamental plasma processes that control the extensive
space environment, or magnetosphere, of Saturn (see Chapter 9, for the global context) …
