Scientific paper

Voyager 1 high latitude and Pioneer 11 equatorial ionospheric structure
indicate a solar EUV-controlled ionosphere with a possible molecular ion
in the topside. Vibrationally excited H2 in the high latitudes may be an
important loss mechanism. Dynamical effects are expected to be important
for determining the peak density and its location.
