  1. Saturn’s Magnetosphere fromCassini-Huygens Stamatios M. Krimigis Johns HopkinsUniversity Applied Physics Laboratory And Academy of Athens EGU Press Conference Vienna, Austria, April 29, 2014 EGU Cassini-Huygens Press Conference

  2. Saturn’s Van Allen Beltssculpted by the moons(Roussos et al, JGR, 116, 2011) EGU Cassini-Huygens Press Conference

  3. Complete the Solar Cycle Critical Orbit Location for Magnetospheric Dynamics, Plasma Escape Moon-coupling Plasmoid Moon-Saturn Coupling Moon-Saturn Coupling: Enceladus zaps the atmosphere (Pryor, Rymer et al, Nature, 472, 331, 2011) Will solar wind-driven storms return in the decline of the solar cycle? Sophisticated Models inform the observations, advance understanding EGU Cassini-Huygens Press Conference Will solar wind-driven storms return in the decline of the solar cycle?

  4. Saturn’s Magnetosphere is a dynamic, rotating, ever-changing environment • (Mitchell et al, Planet. Space Sci., 57, 1732, 2009)

  5. Saturn exhibited dual rotation periods for North and South, that have now merged. The electrons and ions in the magnetosphere do the same (Carbary et al, 2013) EGU Cassini-Huygens Press Conference

  6. Wide (± 50°) dayside plasma sheet Thin and northwards tilted nightside plasma sheet A data based, 3D artist’s concept of the >3 keV energetic particle distribution in the Saturnian magnetosphere, as measured by Cassini/MIMI between SOI and mid 2007. EGU Cassini-Huygens Press Conference Krimigis et al., Nature, 2007
