Scientific paper

The Voyager 2 flyby of Jupiter, which occurred in July 1979, provided the second opportunity to study plasma waves in the vicinity of Jupiter (first measurements made by Voyager 1 in March 1979). Because of the somewhat different trajectory and plasma conditions at Jupiter, the Voyager 2 mission provided new perspectives for analyzing many of the phenomena detected by Voyager 1, and also revealed the presence of several new types of plasma waves. A survey is presented of the initial results from the Voyager 2 plasma wave instrument, with special emphasis on the new observations and comparisons with the Voyager 1 results. The data base for the present discussion starts with the first detection of radio emissions from Jupiter about six months before closest approach and ends about two weeks after closest approach
