Small-scale magnetic anomolies on the surface of planetary satellites create "mini-magnetospheres" which can lead to standoff shocks analogous to planetary bow shocks. It is known that radio emissions are associated with the foreshock regions of Earth's bow shock and travelling interplanetary shocks. A theoretical model exists that successfully accounts for the levels and characteristics of terrestrial foreshock emissions and type II bursts (associated with interplanetary shocks). Here, we generalize this model in order to investigate radio emissions associated with mini-magnetospheres. We present preliminary calculations for the Moon and determine the detectability of radio emission by spacecraft such as WIND. We also discuss the implications of this model for the Jovian moons.
