Jupiter's main auroral oval observed with HST-STIS (2003, background): “These measurements directly test the theoretical predictions [Cowley and Bunce, 2001, 2003a, 2003b; Southwood and Kivelson, 2001; Waite et al., 2001; Khurana, 2001] of the changes in auroral activity which are expected to accompany changes in the angular velocity of the equatorial plasma.”
Magnetospheric interactions with satellites (2004, background): “Because Jupiter’s dipole moment is tilted by about 10 relative to its rotation axis and because of the local time dependence of the current encircling Jupiter in the near equatorial plasma sheet (Khurana 2001), the orientation of Jupiter’s magnetospheric field at the locations of the moons changes p”
Solar wind interaction with Jupiter's magnetosphere (2009, background): “[9] Fundamentally, Jupiter’s pronounced dawn‐dusk asymmetry in the magnetic field and plasma flows (Figure 2) is the result of the solar wind interaction with the magnetosphere [Hill et al., 1983; Khurana, 2001 ].”
