TL;DR: The Cassini Plasma Spectrometer (CAPS) as discussed by the authors is a three-dimensional mass-resolved measurements of the full variety of plasma phenomena found in Saturn's magnetosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer onboard the Cassini spacecraft is used to detect molecular hydrogen in the plume of escaping material on Enceladus, finding that the most plausible source of this hydrogen is ongoing hydrothermal reactions of rock containing reduced minerals and organic materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Over the A and B rings, an ionosphere in which O2+ and O+ are dominant is found, which suggests the possible existence of a layer of O2 gas similar to the atmospheres of Europa and Ganymede.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparing Jupiter interior structure models to Juno gravity measurements and the role of a dilute core
S. M. Wahl,William B. Hubbard,Burkhard Militzer,Tristan Guillot,Yamila Miguel,Naor Movshovitz,Naor Movshovitz,Yohai Kaspi,Ravit Helled,Ravit Helled,Daniel R. Reese,Eli Galanti,Steven Levin,John E. P. Connerney,Scott Bolton +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a selection of interior models based on ab initio computer simulations of hydrogen-helium mixtures is presented. But, the model predictions are strongly affected by the chosen equation of state, the prediction of an enrichment of Z in the deep, metallic envelope over that in the shallow, molecular envelope holds.

TL;DR: In this article, a spherical harmonic model of the magnetic field of Jupiter was obtained from vector magnetic field observations acquired by the Juno spacecraft during its first nine polar orbits about the planet, which provided the first truly global coverage of Jupiter's magnetic field with a coarse longitudinal separation of ~45 deg between perijoves.
