4 The Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Investigations Radio emissions Plasma waves Lightning Thermal plasma Dust
5 The Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Investigations (II) Radio emissions Important because of the involved plasma processes. Provides remote sensing tools, such as determination of the internal rotation period by the modulation of the radio emissions. Type of emissions: Saturn kilometric radiation (SKR) Generated over the dayside auroral zone. Believed to be generated by the cyclotron maser mechanism. Frequency 3 khz 1.2 MHz Power W Synchrotron radiation Mode conversion from electrostatic upper hybrid waves Mode conversion from Langmuir waves
6 The Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Investigations (III) Plasma waves Transfer energy and momentum between particles in a plasma. Processes involving these wave-particle interactions: Loss of particles trapped in the radiation belts Heating of plasma at the bow shock and magnetopause Thermalisation of plasma escaping from moons and rings Acceleration of plasma in regions of strong field-aligned currents Observable plasma waves: Electron-plasma oscillations Upper hybrid resonance emissions Electron cyclotron waves Whistler mode chorus and hiss Electrostatic turbulence at the bow shock Low frequency magnetohydrodynamic turbulence Broadband electrostatic noise
7 The Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Investigations (IIII) Lightning Give rise to intense impulsive radio bursts, Saturn Electrostatic Discharges (SED). High temperatures are reached along the discharge path and organic molecules can form. The organic molecules in Titan s atmosphere are believed to be caused by the solar ultraviolett radiation. Search for lightning in Titan s atmosphere. The SED low frequency cutoff should give an estimate of the ionospheric plasma frequency.
8 The Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Investigations (V) Thermal plasma Key parameters: Electron density Electron temperature Magnetic field Control dispersion and damping of waves. Important also in other plasma processes. Titan is of particular interest and the following will be studied in Titan s ionosphere: Spatial and temporal distribution of the electron density and temperature Escape of thermal plasma from Titan s ionosphere
9 The Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Investigations (VI) Dust Micron-sized particles concentrated near the ring plane near and inside the G ring. Probably produced by micro-meteoroid impacts on the rings and icy moons. The particles evaporates quickly and is a source of magnetospheric plasma. Absorbs energetic radiation belt particles. Due to photoelectron emission, they are charged and affected by electrostatic and electromagnetic forces. Example of dust impact on the spacecraft:

13 Electric Antenna Assembly Includes Antenna deployment mechanisms 3 electric antennas, each 10 m long and with a diameter of 2.86 cm. High frequency receiver The antennas measure the electric field. They can also be connected to a sounder to stimulate plasma resonances and thereby obtain the electron density and the electron temperature.

23 Antenna Calibration Due to interactions with the conducting spacecraft body, the electrical antenna directions deviate from their physical directions. Antenna calibration = determination of the antenna effective length vectors (directions and lengths). Before launch: Rheometry Antenna modeling by measuring the antenna response of a Cassini 1:30 scale model immersed in a water tank. A time-varying electric field is applied to two parallel conducting plates at opposite sides of the tank and the voltage response on the antennas are measured. Wire-grid modeling Numerical calculations of the antenna effective length vectors using a wire-grid model of the spacecraft. In flight: Calibration using jovian radio emissions of known origin as sources. Calibration after the Huygens probe release.
24 RPWS Results Saturn s rotation period has changed. Voyager measured 10 h 39 m 24 ±7 s, while Cassini has measured 10 h 45 m 45 ±36 s. Saturn s aurora has been found to differ morphologically from the aurora at Earth and Jupiter. Enceladus is a plasma source to Saturn s magnetosphere. The outflow from Titan s atmosphere appears to be about 10 times larger than previously predicted. SKR observed also on the nightside region of Saturn. The potential of the rings change with the season. Radio signal from Saturnian lightning (SED) has been linked to storm systems observed by imaging instruments.
