| 内容記述 | Proton diffusion data are calculated for the Jovian satellites Amalthea, Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto, assuming an equatorial magnetic field at Jupiter's surface of 10 gauss. The cyclotron radius, bounce period, and drift period are calculated for 1 MeV protons. These characteristics and the proton energy at the satellite, mean life near the satellite before impact, and diffusion time are also calculated for 100 MeV protons which conserve their first adiabatic invariant. The longitudinal distance between successive bounces is of the order of a few satellite radii. |
