Galilean Satellites, Ccd Photometry

Scientific paper

Timings of Galilean satellite eclipses obtained since 1990 using CCD cameras agree very closely with recent eclipse predictions derived from Galileo spacecraft data. CCD photometry has also led to: (1) there are variations of eclipse times with respect to the E2 satellite ephemeris on time scales as short as weeks; (2) Jupiter's polar haze extends several hundred km above its cloud tops; and (3) the collision of Comet SL-9 with Jupiter in 1994 injected extremely high altitude dust into the planet's atmosphere.
