A Statistical Analysis of the Returning Flux Tubes in the Jovian Magnetosphere Based on Juno Observations

The interchange process is an important mechanism for radial transport of plasma in the magnetospheres of the gas giants, namely Jupiter and Saturn. During this process, dense and cold flux tubes that move outwards are replaced by returning flux tubes with warm and tenuous plasma. In this study, we...
