Models, figures, and gravitational moments of Jupiter’s satellites Io and Europa

Models, figures and gravitational moments of Jupiter’s satellite Io: Effects of the second order approximation

“…The data were improved in the review by Shubert et al (2004) and are given in Table 1. A detailed review on Galilean satellites is given by Hussmann et al (2007). The construction of interior structure models of Io is considered in a number of articles (see, for example, Kuskov and Kronrod, 2001;Sohl et al, 2002;Sotin and Tobie, 2004;Zharkov and Karamursov, 2006).…”

“…The models have a thin 50-km crust with the density r 3 ¼2700 kg/m 3 . The construction of models Io1 and Io3 are described in detail in the paper by Zharkov and Karamursov (2006).…”
