The Merger of Two Giant Anticyclones in the Atmosphere of Jupiter

Journal ArticleDOI

(16) Psyche: A mesosiderite-like asteroid?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the high angular resolution of these observations to refine the density of (16) Psyche to set further constraints on its bulk composition and determine its potential meteoritic analog.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal behavior of cloud morphologies and motions in Saturn's atmosphere

TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed new isolated features at several latitudes during 1990 and 1991, which are used as tracers for determining the latitude dependence and time variability of Saturn's zonal winds.
Journal ArticleDOI
