The generation of Ganymede's diffuse aurora through pitch angle scattering
Diffuse auroral intensities of neutral atomic oxygen OI <i>λ</i>1356 Å emission on Ganymede due to whistler mode waves are estimated. Pitch angle diffusion of magnetospheric electrons into the loss cone due to resonant wave–particle interaction of whistler mode waves is considered, an...
