Abstract

The Radar for Europa Assessment and Sounding: Ocean to Near-surface (REASON) is a dual-frequency ice-penetrating radar (9 and 60 MHz) onboard the Europa Clipper mission. REASON is designed to probe Europa from exosphere to subsurface ocean, contributing the third dimension to observations of this enigmatic world. The hypotheses REASON will test are that (1) the ice shell of Europa hosts liquid water, (2) the ice shell overlies an ocean and is subject to tidal flexing, and (3) the exosphere, near-surface, ice shell, and ocean participate in material exchange essential to the habitability of this moon. REASON will investigate processes governing this material exchange by characterizing the distribution of putative non-ice material (e.g., brines, salts) in the subsurface, searching for an ice-ocean interface, characterizing the ice shell's global structure, and constraining the amplitude of Europa's radial tidal deformations. REASON will accomplish these science objectives using a combination of radar measurement techniques including altimetry, reflectometry, sounding, interferometry, plasma characterization, and ranging. Building on a rich heritage from Earth, the moon, and Mars, REASON will be the first ice-penetrating radar to explore the outer solar system. Because these radars are untested for the icy worlds in the outer solar system, a novel approach to measurement quality assessment was developed to represent uncertainties in key properties of Europa that affect REASON performance and ensure robustness across a range of plausible parameters suggested for the icy moon. REASON will shed light on a never-before-seen dimension of Europa and - in concert with other instruments on Europa Clipper - help to investigate whether Europa is a habitable world.

欧罗巴评估和探测雷达:从海洋到近地表(REASON)。
欧罗巴评估和探测雷达:欧罗巴评估和探测雷达:从海洋到近地表(REASON)是欧罗巴快帆飞行任务上的双频冰穿透雷达(9 和 60 兆赫)。REASON旨在探测欧罗巴从大气层外到地表下海洋的情况,为观测这个神秘世界提供第三个维度。REASON将测试的假设是:(1)欧罗巴的冰壳承载着液态水;(2)冰壳覆盖在海洋之上,并受到潮汐的挠曲;(3)外大气层、近地表、冰壳和海洋参与了对该卫星的宜居性至关重要的物质交换。REASON将通过确定地表下假定非冰物质(如盐水、盐类)的分布特征、寻找冰-海洋界面、确定冰壳的整体结构特征以及限制欧罗巴径向潮汐变形的幅度,来研究这种物质交换的过程。REASON将综合利用测高、反射测量、探测、干涉测量、等离子体特征描述和测距等雷达测量技术来实现这些科学目标。在地球、月球和火星的丰富遗产的基础上,REASON 将成为第一个探索外太阳系的冰穿透雷达。由于这些雷达尚未在外太阳系的冰雪世界中进行过测试,因此开发了一种新颖的测量质量评估方法,以表示影响REASON性能的木卫二关键特性的不确定性,并确保在为冰卫星建议的一系列可信参数范围内的稳健性。REASON将揭示木卫二从未见过的层面,并与木卫二快船上的其他仪器一起,帮助调查木卫二是否是一个宜居的世界。
