The Effect of Field‐Aligned Currents and Centrifugal Forces on Ionospheric Outflow at Saturn

Ionospheric outflow is driven by an ambipolar electric field induced due to the separation of electrons and ions in a gravitational field when equilibrium along a magnetic field line is lost. A model of ionospheric outflow at Saturn was developed using transport equations to estimate the number of c...
