Simulations of the auroral signatures of Jupiter’s magnetospheric injections

[en] We report the evolution of ultraviolet auroral features located equatorward of the main emission appearing in the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images of the northern and the southern Jovian hemisphere. We investigate the possibility that those ultraviolet auroral structures are associated with energetic particle injections. For this study, we compare the characteristics of the simulated auroral signature of plasma injections with the observed parameters of equatorward isolated auroral structures.
