4th outer planet moon - magnetosphere interaction workshop
The 4th “Outer planet moon-magnetosphere interaction workshop” will take place from 31 March to 4 April 2025. The meeting will be hosted by the Institute of Geophysics and Meteorology of the University of Cologne, Germany.
The goal of the workshop is to advance our understanding of moon-magnetosphere interaction in the outer solar system, in the context of past (e.g. Galileo, Cassini, Hisaki), current (e.g. Juno), upcoming (e.g. JUICE, Europa Clipper) and next generation missions (e.g. icy giants). We will welcome contributions including but not limited to: data analysis, modeling, remote sensing and laboratory studies.
A focus of the workshop will be on magnetic sounding of subsurface oceans in icy satellites and a comparison with magnetic sounding of the Earth's ocean (e.g., based on data from the Swarm mission).
The University of Cologne is located within the City of Cologne with a large number of local hotels. The city is easily accessible from Frankfurt, Cologne/Bonn and Düsseldorf ariports.
Preliminary Abstract deadline: 1st of February 2025
