Scientific paper

From a comparison of the evolution over 12 years of both the Ly alpha Jovian emission and the flux at the center of the solar Ly alpha emission profile, the Ly alpha albedo of Jupiter appears not to be always linearly correlated to the solar activity. A spectacular increase of the albedo occurs around solar minimum and is shown to be related to some real change in the upper atmosphere of the planet. One of the potential agents responsible for this phenomenon is suggested to be the solar wind.
