    Lab 7: Gravity and Jupiter's Moons

    Lab 7: Gravity and Jupiter's Moons Image of Galileo Spacecraft Gravity is the force that binds all astronomical structures. Clusters of galaxies are gravitationally bound into the largest structures in the Universe, Galactic Superclusters. The galaxies themselves are held together by gravity, as are all of the star systems within them. Our own Solar System is a collection of bodies gravitationally bound to our star, Sol. Cutting edge science requires the use of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity to explain gravity. But the interactions of the bodies in our Solar System were understood long before Einstein's time. In chapter two of Chaisson McMillan's Astronomy Today, you went over Kepler's Laws. These laws of gravity were made to describe the interactions in our Solar System. P2=a3/M Where 'P' is the orbital period in Earth years, the time for the body to make one full orbit. 'a' is the length of the orbit's semi-major axis, for nearly circular orbits the orbital radius. 'M' is the total mass of the system in units of Solar Masses. Jupiter System Montage picture from NASA ID = PIA01481 Jupiter has over 60 moons at the last count, most of which are asteroids and comets captured from Written by Meagan White and Paul Lewis Page 1 the Asteroid Belt. When Galileo viewed Jupiter through his early telescope, he noticed only four moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. The Jupiter System can be thought of as a miniature Solar System, with Jupiter in place of the Sun, and the Galilean moons like planets.

Gravitational capture can be used to explain the existence of the irregular satellites of giants planets. However, it is only the first step since the gravitational capture is temporary. Therefore, some kind of non-conservative effect is necessary to to turn the temporary capture into a permanent one. In the present work we study the effects of Jupiter mass growth for the permanent capture of retrograde satellites. An analysis of the zero velocity curves at the Lagrangian point L1 indicates that mass accretion provides an increase of the confinement region (delimited by the zero velocity curve, where particles cannot escape from the planet) favoring permanent captures. Adopting the restricted three-body problem, Sun-Jupiter-Particle, we performed numerical simulations backward in time considering the decrease of M . We considered initial conditions of the particles to be retrograde, at pericenter, in the region 100 R a 400 R and 0 e 0:5. The results give Jupiter’s mass at the X moment when the particle escapes from the planet.

USA. Introduction: Surrounding Jupiter there are multi- Results: ple satellites, 67 known to-date. The most recent classi- fication system [1,2], based on orbital characteristics, uses the largest member of the group as the name and example. The closest group to Jupiter is the prograde Amalthea group, 4 small satellites embedded in a ring system. Moving outwards there are the famous Galilean moons, Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto, whose mass is similar to terrestrial planets. The final and largest group, is that of the outer Irregular satel- lites. Those irregulars that show a prograde orbit are closest to Jupiter and have previously been classified into three families [2], the Themisto, Carpo and Hi- malia groups. The remainder of the irregular satellites show a retrograde orbit, counter to Jupiter's rotation. Based on similarities in semi-major axis (a), inclination (i) and eccentricity (e) these satellites have been grouped into families [1,2]. In order outward from Jupiter they are: Ananke family (a 2.13x107 km ; i 148.9o; e 0.24); Carme family (a 2.34x107 km ; i 164.9o; e 0.25) and the Pasiphae family (a 2:36x107 km ; i 151.4o; e 0.41). There are some irregular satellites, recently discovered in 2003 [3], 2010 [4] and 2011[5], that have yet to be named or officially classified.

During the 2014–2015 campaign of mutual events, we recorded ground-based photometric observations of eclipses of Amalthea (JV) and, for the first time, Thebe (JXIV) by the Galilean moons. We focused on estimating whether the positioning accuracy of the inner satellites determined with photometry is sufficient for dynamical studies. Methods. We observed two eclipses of Amalthea and one of Thebe with the 1 m telescope at Pic du Midi Observatory using an IR filter and a mask placed over the planetary image to avoid blooming features. A third observation of Amalthea was taken at Saint-Sulpice Observatory with a 60 cm telescope using a methane filter (890 nm) and a deep absorption band to decrease the contrast between the planet and the satellites.
