Email subject line: AOGS-AGU (WPGM) session PS09: Active Satellites in the Solar System
Dear Colleagues
We invite you to present your work on active planetary satellites at the AOGS-AGU joint assembly in Singapore, 13-17 August, 2012.
**** ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE IS March 12 ****
Session PS09 - Active Satellites in the Outer Solar System
Convenors: Dr. Dennis Matson (JPL); Dr. Athena Coustenis (Paris Observatory); Dr. Steven Vance (JPL); Dr. Ashley Davies (JPL)
This is a session of contributed and invited papers on the geophysics of satellites, especially those that are currently active — Io, Enceladus, Triton, and possibly Europa and Ganymede. Research is progressing rapidly due to the stream of new spacecraft data. Welcome are papers on processes that affect the interiors of individual bodies as well as the surface expressions they produce. Included are the affects and chronology of internal heating (e.g., radioactivity, tidal dissipation, and other), structural evolution (e.g., differentiation), tides, and other processes. These geophysical processes themselves are universal in their application and transcend the compartmentalization suggested by nomenclature such as “satellite,” “dwarf planet,” “asteroid,” “comet,” “KBO,” “TNO,” “parent body,” and “planetesimal”.
