Rotating Finger‐Like Structures of Jovian Magnetodisc

Abstract At Jupiter, the plasma is concentrated near the centrifugal equator, forming a magnetodisc. The planet's dipole tilt induces periodic disc flapping, generating magnetic oscillations observed by spacecraft. While centrifugal forces are theorized to drive interchange instability in this...
