Plasma interaction of Io with its plasma torus
Abstract
Theoretical concepts of the Io-plasma interaction: approaches to modeling - dimensionless parameters, fluid equations, the local interaction, the far-field interaction; Observations of local interactions and their interpretation: Galileo - in situ measurements, small-scale magnetic field perturbations, Io's aurora; Far-field effects and their implications: footprint emissions at IR and UV wavelengths, radio emission.
