The migration of the Galilean satellites in the circumjovian disk

Various physical and orbital properties of the Galilean satellites, such as the decreasing density with distance and the Laplace resonance, imply an intriguing formation history of the system. With prograde orbits of low inclinations and eccentricities, the satellites are thought to be formed in a c...
