The amount of tidal energy dissipated within Io is enormous and has been hypothesized to support the large-scale melting of Io’s interior and the formation of a global subsurface magma ocean. If Io has a shallow global magma ocean, its tidal deformation would be much larger than in the case of a more rigid, mostly solid interior<sup>2</sup>. Here we report the measurement of Io’s tidal deformation, quantified by the gravitational tidal Love number <i>k</i><sub><i>2</i></sub>, enabled by two recent flybys of the Juno spacecraft. By combining Juno<sup>3,4</sup> and Galileo<sup>5-7</sup> Doppler data from the Deep Space Network and astrometric observations, we recover Re(<i>k</i><sub><i>2</i></sub>) of 0.125±0.047 (1σ) and the tidal dissipation parameter <i>Q</i> of 11.4±3.6 (1σ). These measurements confirm that a shallow global magma ocean in Io does not exist and are consistent with Io having a mostly solid mantle<sup>2</sup>. Our results indicate that tidal forces do not universally create global magma oceans, which may be prevented from forming due to rapid melt ascent, intrusion, and eruption<sup>8,9</sup>, so even strong tidal heating – like that expected on several known exoplanets and super-Earths<sup>10</sup> – may not guarantee the formation of magma oceans on moons or planetary bodies.</p>","PeriodicalId":18787,"journal":{"name":"Nature","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":64.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142809308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
