While the Galileo and Cassini missions have provided great insights into the magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn, and the Cassini mission continues to return valuable data, a number of questions remain about the dynamics of giant planet magnetospheres. We are looking for postdoctoral researchers to help further our understanding of giant planet magnetospheres, their large-scale structure, and dynamical behavior as a function of both internal and solar wind forcing.
