On the Detection of Magnetospheric Radio Bursts from Uranus and Neptune.
Abstract
Earth, Jupiter, and Saturn are sources of intense but sporadic bursts of electromagnetic radiation called Magnetospheric Radio Bursts (MRB). Kaiser and Stone noted that the striking similarity of the differential power flux spectra of the MRB from all three planets suggested a common generation mechanism. This report discusses the intensity of MRB for the solar wind power input into a planetary magnetosphere and explores the consequences for possible detection of MRB from Uranus and Neptune.
