Scientific paper

Data from the Energetic Particle Detector on Galileo have been used to investigate whether the radiation belt population can act as a direct energy reservoir for Jovian auroral emissions. Energetic (E>42keV) ion distributions in the middle magnetosphere (9=25pT or Ew>=5mV/m) are sufficient to induce strong diffusion scattering outside 10RJ. Such scattering can account for energy deposition over a broad latitude range (Δλ>=5°) associated with the diffuse Jovian aurora.
