Plasma waves are a critical element to understanding the many mysteries of the gas giant’s turbulent, magnetically powerful ...

The discovery of a dark ribbon of weak hydrogen ion emissions that encircles Jupiter has overturned previous thinking about the giant planet's magnetic equator.

A massive solar windstorm in 2017 compressed Jupiter's magnetosphere "like a giant squash ball," a new study reports.

Jupiter, the giant of our Solar System, remains one of the most fascinating and mysterious planets to explore. With its ...

In an exciting new discovery, scientists have identified that magnetic tornadoes on Jupiter are creating massive storms the size of Earth. These storms, which manifest as dark ovals in the planet ...

NASA’s Juno spacecraft has detected an unusual new variety of plasma phenomenon occurring over Jupiter's north pole.

O'Donoghue published his team's first research linking Jupiter's aurora to planet-wide heating in 2021. They learned that global winds push heat from the poles toward the equator.

New observations with the James Webb Space Telescope reveal a never-before-seen jet stream near Jupiter's equator moving twice as fast as a Category 5 hurricane.

"Eight minutes later, the orbiter started receiving data from the descent probe, which slammed into the top of the Jovian ...

And while our planet’s magnetic field lines tidily converge at the poles, the fifth planet from the sun’s north-pole lines return to the south pole and another spot near the equator.

The discovery of a dark ribbon of weak hydrogen ion emissions that encircles Jupiter has overturned previous thinking about the giant planet's magnetic equator.

Study shows first evidence of an ionospheric interaction with Jupiter's equatorial magnetic field Contrary to past theories, the magnetic equator is surprisingly simple but the ionosphere between ...
