Scientific paper

During the period beginning in late October 2000 through early February 2001 an almost continuous stream of real-time telemetry was acquired from the Galileo spacecraft when the Cassini spacecraft was in the vicinity of Jupiter. Galileo encountered a wide range of plasma conditions in the dusk sector of the magnetosphere at radial distances extending out to about 250 RJ (Jovian radii), including the solar wind and magnetosheath, the boundary layer inside the magnetopause, the plasma sheet at lesser radial distances, and the ion and electron plasmas during the close flyby of Ganymede. We report here an overview of the plasma bulk flows, the magnetically field-aligned electrons, the plasma environment of Ganymede, and the character of plasma sheet dynamics.
