Modification of ices by cosmic rays and solar wind
Astrophysical ices are exposed to different radiation fields including photons, electrons and
ions. The latter stem from interstellar cosmic rays (CR), the solar and stellar winds, shock …

Surface‐plasma interactions at Europa in draped magnetospheric fields: The contribution of energetic electrons to energy deposition and sputtering
We calculate the time‐varying spatial distribution of energetic magnetospheric electron
influx onto Europa's surface by combining a hybrid model of the moon's draped …

The optical aurorae of Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto
The tenuous atmospheres of the Galilean satellites are sourced from their surfaces and
produced by a combination of plasma-surface interactions and thermal processes. Even …

A Stable H2O Atmosphere on Europa's Trailing Hemisphere From HST Images
L Roth - Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Previous studies of the global intensities of the oxygen emissions at 1,356 Å and 1,304 Å
revealed molecular oxygen (O2) in Europa's atmosphere. Here we investigate the relative …

Thermal and energetic ion dynamics in Ganymede's magnetosphere
Ganymede is the solar system's only known moon with an intrinsic, global magnetic field.
This field is strong enough to stand off the incident Jovian magnetospheric flow to form a …
