This post is a supplement to “What Juno is Telling Us” and Jupiter’s Auroras. The JEDI detector has found no particle flows over the poles which could be the cause of the auroras. This is because the current orbit passes too high above the poles, a distance above the planet from 2 to 6 Jupiter radii. Based on the current magnetic field models Juno should be encountering the magnetic field lines that form the auroral ovals. But these models are based on measurements of the Earth’s field, which is generated deep in the interior. In the Cyclic Catastrophism model, shown in Figure 1, Jupiter’s magnetic field is nothing like the Earth’s. The magnetic field of Jupiter is generated by an enormous flow of helium ions, positively charged particles, orbiting the planet, at 1.4 Jupiter radii. 1029 of these helium ions per second are produced in a fusion reaction p + d -> 3He++ + γ on the surface of Jupiter and are all moving at the same high velocity ~20,000 km/sec. They spin in a tight vortex due to the Coriolis effect and exit the cloud-tops producing the counter-clockwise spinning Great Red Spot, then colliding with and adding to the stream of helium ions orbiting the planet. By this process they add the angular momentum of the planet to the stream. Helium ions are known to be completely stable, testified by the fact that they have been used to enhance MRIs of lungs because they give stronger signals. This same attribute means that they do not radiate, and cannot be detected by any Juno instrument..

Synchrotron radiation from the spinning, vortical flow of the fast, circulating helium ions was measured by the Cassini probe on its way to Saturn and it became designated the ‘inner radiation belt’. This decimetric synchrotron radiation has been interpreted as due to ultra- relativistic electrons (Bolton, Janssen et al), more recently the JEDI data has shown that it comprises ions, not electrons (Kollmann et al), but JEDI cannot specifically detect these helium ions because they are all moving too fast for the Time of Flight measurement required to identify them. This is inconceivable to astronomers, because any non-nuclear sources would produce particles with a range of velocities, so some of each kind should be detectable. Some scientists understand that the particles in the inner radiation belt are all moving in the same direction, the direction of Jupiter’s rotation, and wisely question how the angular

momentum of the planet is being transferred to the ions (Bagenal), indeed where do all the ions come from? Even more recently, the authors of the paper that showed that the inner belt comprises only ions, believe that the ions are bouncing back and forth (equatorial mirroring) and not unidirectional.
As for the auroral ovals, most scientists cling to the auroras of the Earth for an explanation. This leads to the concept that electrons are coming into the polar region from all different directions (longitudes). But this could not form the perfect continuous ovals. Cyclic Catastrophism explains that a portion of the tornado of helium ions exiting through the Great Red Spot, penetrate the circulating ion cloud and once past it are captured in the magnetic field where, depending on the direction of their velocity vectors, some are captured helically and spiral as vortices to the north and south poles (Figure 1). These particles are still moving at the same velocities and that is why they form the ovals impacting some 16 degrees from the pole. They are thought to produce the auroras only by ionizing various gases in the atmosphere of Jupiter, but since much of the light comes from methane, the implication is that they may be blasting the methane right out of the solid Methane Gas Hydrate surface of the planet. Because the vortices of helium ions in the circulating plasma cloud and the auroral ovals originate considerably south of the equator, at the latitude of the Great Red Spot, the entire magnetic configuration of the planet is shifted. This shows up in the elongated, non circular shape of the northern oval, called a magnetic field anomaly in the literature.
Currently, not a single ‘scientist’ in the world understands that Jupiter’s Inner Radiation Belt is the source of the largest magnetosphere in the solar system, let alone that it comprises relativistic helium ions. How many more years must the world wait to be taught the true nature of the solar system?
