PERIJOVE_TERMINATOR Working Group 4
JUPITER_CPIn situ Jupiter corotation breakdown region and plasma transport observation. Maximize the intervals for which co-rotation is measured to build spatial and temporal coverage of corotation profiles across the magnetosphere and also in the local moon environments. CP stands for corotation profileWorking Group 3

JUPITER_CPSIn situ Jupiter current/plasma sheet observationWorking Group 3
JUPITER_ENAImaging of Jupiter's magnetosphere in energetic neutral atoms (ENAs).Maximize pitch angle coverage with PEP JEI,JDC,JoEE, JENI (ion mode) a) JENI has a broad FoV and captures Jupiter and the Io/Europa torus and magnetosphere at most times. No special pointing design required for JENI besides requiring an approximate nadir pointing (considerable offsets can still be acceptable) b) JNA disk-shaped/slit FoV has a slight offset from the XZ spacecraft plane, meaning that during nadir pointing, it images preferentially the northern or southern extension of the Europa/Io torus, whereas Jupiter may be in the edge or outside of the FoV, especially at large distances. Scans (small rotations around Sc-X) or periods with stable, small offset of the SC-xz plane from Nadir can help to better image stronger emissions from the equatorial torusWorking Group 3
JUPITER_GMIn situ mapping of global configuration and monitoring dynamics of the Jovian magnetospheric environment. corotation should be in the FoV of PEP/JDC or PEP/JEI. Conditions for coverage: ◦ Minimum angle less than about 11.25 deg (half-azimuthal sector size) of a JEI or JDC pixel from corotation ◦ Boresight angle of JDC or JEI less than ˜90 deg Conditions for ideal coverage: ◦ Minimum angle less than about 11.25 deg (half-azimuthal sector size) of a JEI or JDC pixel from corotation ◦ Boresight angle less than ˜75 deg (JEI) or 70 deg (JDC): corotation away from the FoV edge JDC is preferred for monitoring corotation, over JEI, when possible.Working Group 3
