Spatial distribution of plasma in the Io torus

In situ measurements of ion densities and temperatures have been analyzed to produce profiles of these plasma parameters along the Voyager 1 inbound trajectory between 7 and 5 RJ. The temperature profile shows a sharp decrease by a factor of ∼50 between 5.8 and 5.2RJ corresponding to a temperature g...
