Electrodynamic (ED) tethers could be alternative sources of electrical power for missions to Jupiter. Waves radiated by an ED tether, as if supplying power in a JUNO-like (polar, low perijove, high-eccentricity) orbit, are considered. Radiation differs from the Earth ionospheric case [1] because of differences in orbital and planetary conditions, the electron gyrofrequencyto-plasma frequency ratio here being large, in particular. The radiation impedance for the three cold-plasma modes (Alfven, Fast Magnetosonic, and Slow Extraordinary) allowed by the large refractive index condition resulting from a quasisteady-current in the tether frame, is determined [1] J. R. Sanmartin and M. Martinez-Sanchez, J. Geophysical Research 100, 1677 (1995); J. R. Sanmartin and R. D. Estes, J. Geophysical Research 102, 14625 (1997). | |
