Gerald Schubert,Curtis Covey,A. D. Del Genio,L. S. Elson,Gerald M. Keating,Alvin Seiff,Richard E. Young,Jay Apt,Charles C. Counselman,Arvydas J. Kliore,Sanjay S. Limaye,Henry E. Revercomb,Lawrence A. Sromovsky,Verner E. Suomi,Fredric W. Taylor,Richard Woo,U. von Zahn +16 more
TL;DR: The Pioneer Venus data relevant to the dynamics and thermodynamics of the atmosphere is summarized and interpreted in this paper, where the authors summarize and interpret the Pioneer Venus observations relevant to both the day and night side.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spacecraft radio scattering observations of the power spectrum of electron density fluctuations in the solar wind
Richard Woo,John W. Armstrong +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the solar wind electron density power spectra in the solar equatorial region is inferred from observations of phase scintillations and spectral broadening made with the Viking, Helios, and Pioneer spacecraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origins of the Slow and the Ubiquitous Fast Solar Wind
Shadia Rifai Habbal,Richard Woo,Silvano Fineschi,R. O'Neal,John L. Kohl,Giancarlo Noci,Clarence M. Korendyke +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the first coordinated radio occultation measurements and ultraviolet observations of the inner corona below 5.5 Rs, obtained during the Galileo solar conjunction in January 1997, to establish the origin of the slow wind.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ammonia abundance in Jupiter's atmosphere derived from the attenuation of the Galileo probe's radio signal
TL;DR: The radio signal from the Galileo probe to the orbiter experienced attenuation due to ammonia in Jupiter's atmosphere during the probe descent, and a profile of the ammonia content as a function of depth in the atmosphere has been derived from the measurements of the attenuation as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Depiction of Coronal Structure in White-Light Images
TL;DR: In this paper, a normalizing-radial-graded filter (NRGF) was proposed to remove the radial gradient of the brightness of the image to reveal the electron corona structure.
