The Effect of the Io Plasma Torus on Precise Orbit Determination and Gravity Recovery: Application to Europa Clipper

The Effect of the Io Plasma Torus on Precise Orbit Determination and Gravity Recovery: Application to Europa Clipper

The neutral gases released by the intense volcanic activity of the Jupiter moon Io, once ionized by the Jupiter magnetic environment, give rise to a toroidal plasma distribution known as the Io plasma torus (IPT). Radio signals passing through charged-particle environments such as the IPT are heavil...
