Juno observations of Io

A. Mura F. Tosi Francesca Zamboni C. J. Hansen R. M. C. Lopes

NASA’s Juno mission has been observing the Jovian aurorae since 2016 from a polar, highly elliptical orbit.Although not in the main scientific objectives, Juno took images and spectra of the Galilean moons from avery favourable position, using some of the cameras on board: JIRAM, JunoCam and SRU. In particular, TheJovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) is a dual-band imager and spectrometer. The imager channel is asingle detector with 2D capability and with 2 different filters (L band, from 3.3 to 3.6 µm; M band, from 4.5to 5 µm); the spectrometer is a 1-D detector with a spectral resolution of 9 nm in the range 2 - 5 µm. Thepixel angular resolution (0.01°) is fine enough for imaging the moons from the polar, highly elliptical orbit ofJuno; the spatial resolution at the surface of the moons varies along the s/c distance and is of the order of100 km/pixel or even finer. Here we present JIRAM’s images and spectra of Io aftersix years of Juno mission, together with JunoCam and SRU images of Io. On Io, these observationscharacterize the location and possible morphology, and some temperatures, of the volcanic thermalsources; the identification and distribution of SO 2 , the possible identification of CO 2 and other materials. Recent Juno flybys, at distance down to 50'000 km, allows unprecedented imaging of the moon with resolution of about 10 km.This allows reconstructing the morphology of hot spots, and a better mapping of their distribution, in location and emitted power.

High-energy electron testing of CCDs for a Jovian science mission

Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE (2005)

Heidi N. Becker James W. Alexander Tom Elliott

We present results of CCD radiation testing for a proposed Jovian mission. Samples of two candidate star tracker CCDs were irradiated with 10-MeV and 50-MeV electrons at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Gaerttner LINAC. Differences in displacement damage effects on CCD parameters and star tracker performance are discussed for these two energies. Dark current, charge transfer efficiency (CTE), hot pixels, and flat-band voltage shifts are examined. Our electron data is compared to proton irradiation data taken by other experimenters. 10-MeV electron-induced transient data are also discussed.
