Scientific paper

A simple yet comprehensive set of UV observations of the Io plasma torus and near-Io environment with the FOS and HRS at low and medium resolutions is proposed with the goal of understanding the interaction between the plasma torus and Io's atmosphere. Spatial scans of Io will yield the radial dependence of sulfur (S) and oxygen (O) densities, spatially resolve the interaction region of neutral S and O emission discovered by IUE, and determine its electron temperature (Te). The detection of OII 2470 will also be attempted.
