The image depicts magnetic field of the Jovian satellite Ganymede embedded into the magnetosphere of Jupiter. The image is based on the reported Galileo measurements.[1][2]
The green color denotes closed field lines. The model used for this work is a superposition of the background Jovian field (120 nT) and the intrinsic field (720 nT at the equator). The angle between the background field and the moment is 45°.
This image (or all images in this category) uses inside labels or attached captions in a specific script or language and should be converted to a language neutral form. This would allow its use in all Wikimedia projects and, more importantly, all Wikimedia languages.
