Scientific paper

Understanding Titan's plasma interaction and the evolution of Titan's ionosphere/atmosphere is one of the main objectives of the Cassini mission. Cassini has found this interaction to be far more complex than was thought after the Voyager encounter. To compliment the Cassini mission and further our understanding of Titan's plasma interaction we present results from high resolution 3-D hybrid particle code simulations of Titan. The research is focused on understanding the interaction with Saturn's magnetosphere and subsequent ionospheric processes. A variety of physical and chemical models added to the code will be discussed. These include a chemical package that resolves ionospheric features as well as the Hall and Pedersen conductivities associated with plasma neutral collisions. Additional information
