Abstract

During Juno's close flybys of Io in 2023 and 2024, its low-light sensitive Stellar Reference Unit (SRU) was used to conduct a high-resolution visible wavelength (450–1,100 nm) imaging campaign under Jupiter-shine illumination. The SRU acquired Juno's highest resolution image of Io's surface (895–1,230 m/pixel) in December 2023 at a high Jupiter-shine phase angle of ∼110°. The image reveals structural changes in Zal Patera since Galileo (1999–2000) and multiple forms of active volcanism within the Zal Montes-Patera complex, including Promethean-type jets at the flow fronts of a new Zal Patera flow branch. The SRU's sensitivity at redder wavelengths enabled the detection of thermal emission from an active lava channel to the west of South Zal Mons. An additional emission signature is seen at the base of a vertical mountain fracture on the western flank of South Zal Mons, suggestive of a tectonically influenced source vent. Indeed, the SRU's observations in this region suggest a close relationship between mountains and volcanism on Io. The SRU data also provide the first high-resolution view of the geomorphology of the eruptive center Tonatiuh, revealing it to be a compound Promethean-style flow field. SRU imagery from subsequent flybys in February and April 2024 suggest high volcanic activity in the Lei-zi Fluctus region and show increased expansion of the large Masubi flow field in Io's southern hemisphere. Now containing ∼1,600 km of lava flows, Masubi is the longest currently active flow field in the solar system.

Abstract Image

通道化热发射,普罗米修斯型喷流和木卫一表面变化来自朱诺恒星参考单元图像
在2023年和2024年朱诺号近距离飞掠木卫一期间,它的低光敏感恒星参考单元(SRU)被用来在木星的光照下进行高分辨率可见波长(450 - 1100纳米)成像活动。SRU于2023年12月在高木星发光相位角为~ 110°的情况下获得了朱诺号在木卫一表面的最高分辨率图像(895 - 1230米/像素)。该图像显示了自伽利略号(1999-2000)以来扎尔帕特拉的结构变化,以及扎尔蒙特斯-帕特拉复杂区内多种形式的活火山活动,包括扎尔帕特拉新流分支流锋处的普罗米修斯型喷流。SRU在较红波长上的灵敏度使其能够探测到南扎尔蒙斯以西一个活跃熔岩通道的热辐射。在南扎尔蒙斯西侧的垂直山体裂缝底部看到了一个额外的排放特征,表明一个受构造影响的源喷口。事实上,SRU在该地区的观测表明木卫一上的山脉和火山活动之间存在密切关系。SRU数据还提供了第一个高分辨率的喷发中心Tonatiuh的地貌视图,揭示了它是一个复合的普罗米修斯式流场。从2024年2月和4月的后续飞越中获得的SRU图像表明,雷子福卢库斯地区的火山活动非常活跃,并显示木卫一南半球的大型Masubi流场正在扩大。Masubi现在包含约1600公里的熔岩流,是太阳系中目前最长的活跃流场。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Geophysical Research Planets is dedicated to the publication of new and original research in the broad field of planetary science. Manuscripts concerning planetary geology, geophysics, geochemistry, atmospheres, and dynamics are appropriate for the journal when they increase knowledge about the processes that affect Solar System objects. Manuscripts concerning other planetary systems, exoplanets or Earth are welcome when presented in a comparative planetology perspective. Studies in the field of astrobiology will be considered when they have immediate consequences for the interpretation of planetary data. JGR: Planets does not publish manuscripts that deal with future missions and instrumentation, nor those that are primarily of an engineering interest. Instrument, calibration or data processing papers may be appropriate for the journal, but only when accompanied by scientific analysis and interpretation that increases understanding of the studied object. A manuscript that describes a new method or technique would be acceptable for JGR: Planets if it contained new and relevant scientific results obtained using the method. Review articles are generally not appropriate for JGR: Planets, but they may be considered if they form an integral part of a special issue.
