Duct Effect of Magnetic Dips on the Propagation of EMIC Waves in Jupiter's Magnetosphere With Observations of Juno

In recent years, it has been found that magnetic dip caused by diamagnetic motion of injected plasma can provide an appropriate environment for excitation of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves. These findings have been widely reported in the Earth's magnetic environment. However, it has rarely been reported in Jupiter's magnetic environment. This paper reports the characteristics of EMIC waves observed by Juno in the magnetic dip of Jupiter. Multiple-band EMIC waves are observed in frequency range from 10-3 Hz to several Hz. The theoretical analysis shows that in this event both He+ band and O+ band EMIC waves can be constrained in the magnetic dip, which is consistent with the wave emissions observed inside the magnetic dip. Our result provides the first evidence that EMIC wave can be ducted inside a magnetic dip in Jupiter's magnetosphere. The relationship between magnetic structures and electromagnetic waves in the Earth's magnetosphere has been widely reported. Recent studies have theoretically displayed the effects of the magnetic dip on the EMIC wave propagation in Earth's magnetic field. In this paper, we use the event observed by Juno in the magnetic environment of Jupiter to analyze the effect of the magnetic dip on the propagation of EMIC waves. As a result, the observed EMIC waves can be ducted inside the magnetic dip of Jupiter's magnetosphere. Since these ducted waves would influence the dynamics of energetic protons through longtime scattering effects, the magnetic dip is expected to play an important role in the dynamics of Jupiter's magnetosphere.
