Apr. 12, 2022 —Scientists report a method to study smaller magnetospheres, sometimes just millimeters thick, in the laboratory. The new experimental platform combines the magnetic field of the Large Plasma Device ...
Mar. 29, 2021 —Astronomers have detected new faint aurora features, characterized by ring-like emissions, which expand rapidly over time. Scientists determined that charged particles coming from the edge of ...
Mar. 9, 2021 —Electrons arriving from the Sun are propelled by electrical energy generated as high as 30,000 kilometers above Earth, ultimately creating the dazzling displays of the northern and southern ...
Apr. 10, 2021 —Jupiter's polar cap is threaded in part with closed magnetic field lines rather than entirely with open magnetic field lines, new research ...
July 20, 2021 —A research team has identified the origin of bifurcated current sheets, considered one of the most unsolved mysteries in the Earth's magnetosphere and in magnetized plasma ...
July 22, 2021 —Any life identified on planets orbiting white dwarf stars almost certainly evolved after the star's death, says a new study that reveals the consequences of the intense and furious stellar winds ...
Mar. 16, 2021 —The midnight births of the dramatic bright surges in Jupiter's aurora known as dawn storms are captured in a new study of data from the Juno space ...
Jan. 10, 2023 —In June 2021, NASA's Juno spacecraft flew close to Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, observing evidence of magnetic reconnection. A team has used Juno data to examine the electron and ion ...
Feb. 3, 2022 —New space research has revealed a complex 'tug-of-war' lights up aurorae in Jupiter's upper atmosphere. The study describes the delicate current cycle driven by Jupiter’s rapid ...
Apr. 5, 2022 —On November 8, 2020, NASA's Juno spacecraft flew through an intense beam of electrons traveling from Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, to its auroral footprint on the gas giant. Scientists ...
