Abstract

We present an application of the latest UCL-AGA magnetodisc model (MDISC) to the study of the magnetic and plasma conditions in the near-Ganymede space. By doing this, we provide a comparison with measurements from Juno's most recent flyby of the Jovian moon, perijove 34 (PJ34). We find good agreement between the model results and the magnetometer data, pointing toward a hot plasma index value K h = ${K}_{h}=$ (2.719 ± $\pm $ 0.024) × ${\times} $ 107 Pa m T−1 and an effective magnetodisc radius r max = ${r}_{\text{max}}=$ (79.5 ± $\pm $ 1.1) Jupiter radii for the Jovian magnetosphere, for the duration of the trajectory, suggesting a configuration with middling levels of expansion. We also predict the plasma conditions observed by Juno during the same flight-path, as well as the typical conditions over the orbit of Ganymede, with the magnetic and hot plasma pressures assuming dominant roles. Finally, these results are compared with functional fits of a compilation of Galileo flyby data obtained in the vicinity of Ganymede's orbit, suggesting Juno experienced somewhat similar conditions, despite a systematic overestimation in magnetic field intensity in the near-Ganymede space.

确定木卫三上游磁场和等离子体环境的特征
我们介绍了最新的 UCL-AGA 磁盘模型(MDISC)在研究近木卫三空间的磁场和等离子体条件中的应用。通过这一研究,我们将模型结果与朱诺号最近飞越木卫三卫星PJ34(Perijove 34)时的测量结果进行了对比。我们发现模型结果与磁强计数据之间有很好的一致性,表明在飞行轨迹期间,木卫三磁层的热等离子体指数值K h = ${K}_{h}=$ (2.719 ± $\pm $ 0.024) × ${\times} $ 107 Pa m T-1,有效磁盘半径r max = ${r}_{text{max}}=$ (79.5 ± $\pm $ 1.1) 木星半径,这表明木卫三磁层的构造具有中等程度的膨胀。我们还预测了 "朱诺 "号在相同飞行路径上观测到的等离子体状况,以及木卫三轨道上的典型状况,其中磁压和热等离子体压占据了主导地位。最后,将这些结果与伽利略号飞越伽尼米得轨道附近数据汇编的函数拟合结果进行了比较,结果表明,尽管伽尼米得附近空间的磁场强度被系统性地高估了,但朱诺号所经历的情况与之有些类似。
