RECENT radio observations of Jupiter, in the frequency-range 14–27 Mc./s., have suggested the presence of an ionosphere and a magnetic field on the planet. If the magnetic field is regarded as ...

The magnetic field around Jupiter is enormous, with a strength some 20,000 times greater than that of Earth! The magnetosphere is some 1200 times larger in size than that found around the Earth! Note ...

This region isn't actually blue; the name comes from the color scale scientists use to build maps of Jupiter's magnetic field. Unlike Earth's magnetic field, the gas giant's field is not symmetric ...

The planet's fast spin on its axis means that one Jupiter day lasts less than 10 Earth hours, and it sparks electrical currents that may drive the planet's intense and massive magnetic field ...

Using data from the Hubble Space Telescope captured between 1994 and 2022, researchers examined 26 global maps of Jupiter ... dynamics linked to Jupiter’s magnetic field. Tom Stallard of ...

Juno’s close passes have also allowed scientists to map Io’s magnetic field and plasma interactions, revealing how charged particles from Io contribute to Jupiter’s massive magnetosphere.
