Scientific paper

The newly discovered gossamer ring of Jupiter, composed largely of micron-sized grains, exhibits a significant peak very near the synchronous radius. It is believed that this peak is associated with an unobserved source consisting of large bodies that straddle the synchronous orbit. An alternative evolutionary mechanism is offered, which is the gyrophase drift towards the synchronous orbit, of fine grains, which necessarily are electrostatically charged within the Jovian magnetosphere.
