The Voyager 1 and 2 outbound observations of periodic double-peak flux maxima (which mark encounters with the magnetodisk) are separated into two distinct branches: a 'leading' branch (N to S disk crossings) and a 'trailing' branch (S to N disk crossings). On a plot of longitude versus radial distance, the leading branch has a positive slope and the trailing branch has a relatively flat slope. The two branches meet at 80 to 100 Jovian radii, beyond which periodic single peaks or closely spaced multiple peaks are generally observed. In the present paper, this structure is examined, using the three principal disk models which have been proposed to explain periodicities in the Jovian atmosphere.
