Slow evolution of Europa's interior: Metamorphic ocean origin, delayed metallic core formation, and limited seafloor volcanism
Europa's ocean lies atop an interior made of metal and silicates. On the basis of gravity data
from the Galileo mission, many argued that Europa's interior, like Earth, is differentiated into …

Tidally induced magmatic pulses on the oceanic floor of Jupiter's moon Europa
The habitability of Europa's subsurface ocean is conditioned by heat released from the deep
interior and by intensity of magmatic activity. Here, we investigate the melting of the silicate …
