Jovian X-rays - Recent upper limits and reasons to continue the search
Abstract
Twenty-two days of data from the UHURU satellite, obtained during early 1971, have been examined for evidence of Jovian X-ray emission on time scales down to several seconds. No statistically significant X-ray fluxes were found in the 2 to 6-keV energy range, although one observation was made during a decametric radio event and three others were made when decametric emission was probably being generated.
